Book Electro Hydraulic Actuation Systems

Download or read book Electro Hydraulic Actuation Systems written by J. Jaidev Vyas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book serves as a unique integrated platform, which not only describes the design methodology of electro-hydraulic actuation systems but also provides insights into the design of the servo valve, which is the most important component in the system. It presents a step-by-step design process, comparative tables, illustrative figures, and detailed explanations. The book focuses on the design and testing of electro-hydraulic actuation systems, which are increasingly being used in motion control applications, particularly in those where precision actuation at high operational rates is of prime importance. It describes in detail the design philosophy of such high-performance systems, presenting a system used as a physical test setup together with experimental results to corroborate the calculations. Of particular interest are the electro-hydraulic servo valves that form the heart of these actuations. These valves are complex and not much data is available in open literature due to OEM propriety issues. In this context, the book discusses the elaborate mathematical models that have been derived and an approach to validate the mathematical models with test results. Presenting the complex methodology in simple language, it will prove to be a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professional engineers alike.

Book On Motion Control of Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuators

Download or read book On Motion Control of Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuators written by Martin Hochwallner and published by Linköping University Electronic Press. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuators combine one or more short-stroke cylinders, and two or more engaging/disengaging mechanisms into one actuator with long, medium, or even unlimited stroke length. The motion of each single short-stroke actuator concatenated by the engaging/disengaging mechanisms forms the motion of the linear incremental hydraulic actuator. The patterns of how these motions are concatenated form the gaits of a specific linear incremental hydraulic actuator. Linear incremental hydraulic actuators may have more than one gait. In an application, the gaits may be combined to achieve optimal performance at various operating points. The distinguishing characteristic of linear incremental hydraulic actuators is the incremental motion. The term incremental actuator is seen as analogous to the incremental versus absolute position sensor. Incremental actuators realize naturally relative positioning. Incremental motion means also that the behavior does not depend on an absolute position but only on the relative position within a cycle or step. Incremental actuators may realize discrete incremental or continuous incremental motion. Discrete incremental actuators can only approach discrete positions, whereby stepper drives are one prominent example. In contrast, continuous incremental actuators may approach any position. Linear electric motors are one example of continuous incremental actuators. The actuator has no inherent limitation in stroke length, as every step or cycle adds only to the state at the beginning of the step or cycle and does not depend on the absolute position. This led to the alternative working title Hydraulic Infinite Linear Actuator. Linear incremental hydraulic actuator provides long stroke, high force, and linear motion and has the potential to decrease the necessary resource usage,minimize environmental impact, e.g. from potential oil spillage,extend the range of feasible products: longer, stiffer, better, etc. This thesis presents an analysis of the characteristics and properties of linear incremental hydraulic actuators as well as the gaits and possible realizations of some gaits. The gait for continuous, smooth motion with two cylinders is comprehensively studied and a control concept for the tracking problem is proposed. The control concept encapsulates the complexity of the linear incremental hydraulic actuator so that an application does not have to deal with it. One other gait, the ballistic gait, which realizes fast, energy-efficient motion, enabling energy recuperation is studied.

Book Smart Material Electrohydrostatic Actuator for Intelligent Transportation Systems

Download or read book Smart Material Electrohydrostatic Actuator for Intelligent Transportation Systems written by Michael J. Rupinsky and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Future intelligent transportation systems require actuation systems that are lightweight, compact and have a large power density. Due to their solid-state operation, fast frequency response, and high power-to-weight ratio, electrohydrostatic actuators (EHAs) based on smart materials are attractive as a replacement for conventional hydraulic actuators. Unlike conventional hydraulic systems, EHAs use smart material pumps which are driven electrically and integrated within the EHA rather than being mechanically connected to the vehicle's engine, thus precluding the need for accessory gear boxes and plumbing throughout the vehicle. This also permits the EHA to achieve much higher frequency responses, much lower overall power consumption, and increased reliability. The automotive and aerospace industries currently are the leading sectors in EHA research. Specific automotive uses include active suspension concepts, fly-by-wire steering and braking; aircraft uses include landing gear actuation and adaptive morphing of wings for advanced aerodynamic control. A smart material deforms and changes its properties when exposed to external fields, for example electric fields (piezoelectric materials) or magnetic fields (magnetostrictive materials). Since smart materials produce small-stroke, large-force, highfrequency motion output in response to external fields, methods for transmitting small vibrations into large deformations and forces are needed. This document is focused on the development of a smart material-based pump for EHAs in which the mechanical vibrations produced by a magnetostrictive alloy, terbium-iron-dysprosium, are rectified by means of diode-type mechanical reed valves. A prototype pump is designed and constructed. Measurements conducted on this system demonstrate the ability of the reed valves to effectively rectify the oscillatory pressure pulses created by the magnetostrictive material and create unidirectional fluid flow. A maximum blocked pressure differential of 1100 psi is achieved with a power consumption of 84 W. A dynamic system model of the magnetostrictive pump with an attached hydraulic actuator is presented. The model is developed by using a lumped parameter analysis on the hydraulic circuit and using Newton's laws to couple the hydraulic and the mechanical domains. Coupling between mechanical and electrical domains is achieved by formulating electroacoustic transduction equations. Coupled differential equations of the system level model are written in state space form and solved numerically in MATLAB. The solver assumes a linear system for each time step and utilizes the values at previous times as initial conditions in order to march through time. The model can be easily modified in order to accurately model testing of the pump. The dynamic system model aids in validating the device operation and gives insight into future design modifications aimed at increasing the pressure output. Calculation of mechanical and electrical impedances allows analysis of the effect of hydraulic loading on pump operation.
