Nonlinear Position Control with Nonlinear Coordinate Transformation Using Only Position Measurement for Single-Rod Electro-Hydrostatic Actuator

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
In existing methods, full-state feedback is required for the position tracking of single-rod Electro Hydrostatic Actuators (EHAs). Measuring a full state is not always possible because of cost and space limitations.

Position Control of a Single-Rod Electro-Hydrostatic Actuator Experiencing a Leaky Piston Seal

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2022
Single-rod cylinders are generally employed in electro-hydrostatic actuators (EHAs). A condition that is difficult to detect and could degrade the performance in single-rod EHAs, is the faulty cylinder piston seal. It causes internal leakage from one chamber of the actuator to another.

VARIABLE STRUCTURE CONTROLLER OF NOVEL EMBEDDED SMA ACTUATORS

open access: yesElectrica, 2005
A novel shape memory alloy (SMA) actuator consisting of a cylindrical rod with a single off-axis embedded one-way SMA wire is first described. The actuators, acting as both actuating elements and executing elements, are compact enough to be used in ...

A Critical Analysis of Valve-Compensated Hydrostatic Actuators: Qualitative Investigation

open access: yesActuators, 2019
Hydrostatic actuation has gained interest from both academia and industry due to the unquestionable energetic advantages when compared to valve-controlled actuators; the main feature being the absence of throttling losses due to the direct control of the

Improving performance of pump-controlled hydraulic circuits for single-rod actuators: conceptual study

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023
Abstract Pump-controlled hydraulic circuits are more efficient than conventional valve-controlled ones. Pump-controlled hydraulic circuits for double rod cylinders are well developed and, presently, implemented in many applications including aviation.

A nonlinear theory for fibre-reinforced magneto-elastic rods

open access: yes, 2017
We derive a model for the finite motion of a magneto-elastic rod reinforced with isotropic (spherical) or anisotropic (ellipsoidal) inclusions. The particles are assumed weakly and uniformly magnetised, rigid and firmly embedded into the elastomeric ...
