ENGR 5946G - Advanced Fluid Power Control and Simulation


The fluid power systems (FPS) plays an indispensable role in motion and force actuation for various applications in industrial sectors such as automotive, automation, construction, and agriculture. The objective of this course is to introduce advanced technologies on FPS, to understand the principles of FPS modeling and control design, and to learn computational skills using the commercial simulation software, Amesim, that enables modeling/analysis/control of physical multi‐domain systems (i.e., mechanical, thermal, fluid, control, electromechanical and mechatronics) and provides a co‐simulation interface with Matlab/Simulink. The course covers topics in both theories (introduction to electro‐hydraulic actuator (EHA) applications, operational principles of FPS, core components of FPS including independent‐metering valve, electro‐hydraulic circuit analysis, and design of control algorithms using several control techniques such as fuzzy logic, sliding mode control, etc.) and computer simulations (modeling of mechanical/hydraulic parts/FPS systems, planar mechanical model, co‐simulation with Amesim plant model and Matlab/Simulink control model, and data analysis techniques).
Credit hours: 3
