The ball and beam system is one of the most popular laboratory setups for control education. In this paper, we design a fuzzy PD cascade controller for a ball and beam system using Asexual Reproduction Optimization (ARO) technique. The ball & beam system consists of a servo motor, a grooved beam, and a rolling ball. This system utilizes a servo motor to control ball’s position on the beam. Chan...

Due to nonlinear uncertainties of the electric scooter such as nonlinear friction force of the transmission belt and clutch, these will lead to degenerate tracking responses in command current and speed of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) servo-driven electric scooter. In this study a novel hybrid recurrent wavelet neural network (HRWNN) control system is proposed to raise robustne...

Because of complex mechanical properties and deformation mechanism, gravel soil mixture is an important medium concern in the field geotechnical engineering. Based on continuous-discontinuous coupling algorithm formed by structure shell elements particle discrete element method (PFC3D), soft servo loading sample realized, typical triaxial compression test data are used to calibrate mesoscale pa...

In the pneumatic driving system for a soft mechanism, control valve is most heavy and expensive device. To realize compact inexpensive system, it necessary to reduce size, weight, cost of valve. previous study, low-cost 4-port servo that could flow rate by changing bending angle buckled tubes was proposed tested. However, tube in became least durable component. The speed at which altered affect...

The performance of the pneumatic servo systems improved greatly as the pneumatic servo valves became commercially available in the late 1980s. At present, one of the best pneumatic servo valves has a dynamic response of 100 Hz and a spool position accuracy of 2% to the full stroke. By using these pneumatic servo valves, the precise position control by the pneumatic servo system has entered a pr...

A servo manipulator system has been developed for remotely handling radioactive materials in a hot cell [1]. Unlike a robot manipulator, a servo manipulator is monitored and controlled by an operator all the time. A robot manipulator performs a taught or programmed task without an operator. Generally, a servo manipulator consists of a master arm and a slave arm. The slave arm is a device for wo...

The major factor influencing drip rate during intravenous infusion using a standard administration set is the variation in the venous pressure of the patient. Creep in the plastic material, though present, is shown to be unimportant. For steady and accurate infusion it is necessary to provide the ordinary gravity-fed administration set with some form of servo-control mechanism.

Recently in the field of sheet metal forming, servo press, which can control the speed and position of the tool using a servo motor, is attractive method. Development process of servo press method is accelerated as the capacity of servo motor become bigger. In the future, it’s expected as a great alternative plan to replace conventional press method in order to improve quality, increase product...

Pneumatic servo systems are applied in several industrial applications and have also been studied extensively for the purposes of compensating the nonlinearity of pneumatic servo systems and improving the controllability with robust control. In their control system design, the transfer function of a pneumatic servo system has been a third-order time lag system, based on the assumption that serv...
