In order to enhance the efficiency of the hydraulic system, one new-type hydraulic transformer is presented in this paper. First, the basic structure and the principle of the new-type hydraulic transformer are explained. Then, the mathematical models including both the inner and outer loops are analyzed. Moreover, two kinds of control methods are discussed corresponding to the two loops, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed strategies are translated into the simulation languages, and the simulation is made in Simulink. Finally, the prototypes of new-type hydraulic transformer and the test rig are constructed to test the performance. Both the simulated and experimental results show that the new-type hydraulic transformer can be used in the practical condition, and the proposed control algorithm is suitable.

This paper deals with a novel independent metering valve system which is intended to be used in medium sized mobile machines. The system uses a mechanical pressure compensator to enable a very simple SISO control algorithm which does not need any feedback parameters to be adjusted. The algorithm is capable of handling resistive and pulling loads at a certain desired velocity and inlet chamber pressure level. The paper gives a brief summary of the systematic approach to deriving the valves structure and compares different control approaches for the complete hydraulic system comprising several actuators. Special emphasis is given to the preferred solution, which is verified on a laboratory test rig consisting of reasonably priced mobile machine components. Furthermore a linear model of system and control structure is constructed to give detailed information regarding the dynamic characteristics of the controlled drive. The energetic benefits of the novel system architecture in comparison to a standard coupled metering flow sharing system are investigated by means of a levelling movement performed on the test rig and a simulated synthetic high power digging cycle.

Abstract. To improve the automation degree in special working environment which contains explosive gas. We develop a new type of temperature control hydraulic sensor basically on theory and lots of experiments. As the temperature reaches about 85°C,the motion part of the inductor will stretch to a certain length, and then it will push the adjusting rod. Simultaneously,the adjusting rod will overcome the elastic force of the spring and compel the spool valve to deform, and finally the control valve port will be open, it allows the control oil of the hydraulic system to pass. At last it reaches our destination that we can make the control of hydraulic circuit be realized.

1. Objective measurements of the maximal voluntary strength of triceps surae and the amount and speed of customary walking have been made in 56 men and 66 women aged over 65 years, who were living independently. 2. Strength was measured using a dynamometer based upon a hydraulic system (Bourdon tube). Walking was assessed, for amount using a mechanical accelerometer (pedometer) over a week, and for speed using a self-paced test for normal walking over 100 m on the level. The reliability and validity of these methods has been described. 3. The men were significantly stronger (1128 ± 206 vs 873 ± 177 N) even after adjustment for body weight; their amount of walking was similar to that of women, but they walked significantly faster (4.8 ±0.6 vs 4.2 ±0.6 km/h). Men were significantly more active in leisure pursuits (as assessed by questionnaire). 4. Significant associations between strength and chosen normal walking speed were found for both sexes (r = 0.41, P < 0.001 for men and r = 0.36, P < 0.01 for women). The amount of walking (daily stepscore as a mean from 7 consecutive days recorded) was significantly but less strongly correlated with strength (r = 0.30, P < 0.05) in the men only. 5. Multiple regression analysis showed that in men neither age nor amount of walking had any further effect in addition to speed, but in women age had an additional effect (multiple R = 0.48). 6. An association has been demonstrated which raises the possibility of reversing loss of muscle strength through increased daily activity.

Because ordinary hydraulic system exists multiple fault, power waste and hard controlling in actuators due to the complexity of actuators and variability of load. A new hydraulic system based on the load sensing technology is designed for the new type steel arch installing machine. The results of the simulation for forearm loop based on AMESim show that the designed hydraulic system is energy-efficient and load sensing function is effectively achieved, the actuator control performance is well.

Abstract The current paper presents an engineering approach for studies of the control algorithm designed for a mechanically robust large antenna. Feed-forward control methods with the 3rd-order polynomial tracking algorithm are supplemented to the original feed-back PID control system. Dynamical model of the existing servo system of 32m radio telescope has been developed to widen a case analysis of observation sessions and efficiency of the control algorithms due to limited access to an antenna. Algorithms along with the results from the system implemented on a real antenna as well as model results are presented.

This paper focuses on the problem of the application of inverse dynamics control methods to robots with flexible joints and electromechanical actuators. Due to drawbacks of the continuous-time inverse dynamics, discussed in the paper, a new control strategy in discrete-time is presented. The proposed control algorithm is based on numerical methods conceived for the solution of index-three systems of differential-algebraic equations. The method is computationally efficient and admits low sampling frequencies. The results of numerical experiments confirm the advantages of the designed control algorithm.

It is possible to create a control program for a two-mass system based on an industrial micro- controller. The software implements various control methods to reduce the dynamic loads in the kinematic elements during the transients. The methods of simulating the behavior of the mechanism in different condi- tions and time intervals is described, as well as demonstration of the system operation and registration of relevant data. Numerous studies have shown that mechanical vibrations in most cases adversely affect the operation of the electric drive, causing an increase in dynamic loads, which reduces the accuracy of the mechanism, the occurrence of mechanical vibrations that create a dangerous situation. In the transients, when the suspension point of the load moves with acceleration, there is a swing of the load relative to its equilibrium position. The aim of the work is to control the mechanism of horizontal movement by an indus- trial controller, which implements the reduction of loads in the kinematic transmissions during the transi- ents, increases the speed and dampens the oscillations of the suspended load. The task is to develop a control algorithm and demonstrate the possibility of implementing the necessary control laws of the industrial con- troller. The possibility of realization of a microcontroller control of the asynchronous electric drive of the translational movement mechanism with the suspended load is shown, the control algorithm providing re- duction of the dynamic loadings in the kinematic elements is developed, and at small values of a backlash it provides speed and damping of the fluctuations suspended on a flexible thread. The management program is implemented on the basis of the industrial controller. It is possible to demonstrate the operation of the sys- tem in real time, as well as, changing the scale of time, to investigate the dynamic loads arising in the kine- matic elements of the mechanism under different conditions and control methods.

The main task was investigation and precision improve­ment for a positioning drive, installed in a test rig for testing and calibration of the geodetic instruments at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Institute of Geodesy. Replacement of a stepper motor and a microstepping controller design increased positioning accuracy to 0.1''. Vibrations and noise of the test rig were significantly decreased using an optimized control algorithm, where resonating step frequencies were bypassed. The time of scale rotation between measurements (every 30°) achieved less than 1.5 min. Methods of the further precision improvement were selected, and this research is in progress now.
