Abstract

In this paper, the classical Preisach independent domain model is used to capture the essential characteristics of hysteresis nonlinearity in electromagnetic (EM) actuators made of soft ferromagnetic material. Experimental results demonstrate its ability to accurately model electromagnetic hysteresis for variations in input current, airgap, and orientation. The Preisach model is then inverted and incorporated in an open-loop control strategy that regulates the EM actuator and compensates for hysteretic effects; hysteresis-free regulation of the EM actuator is obtained, for variations in input current, airgap, and orientation. Hysteresis is also effectively compensated for desired force trajectories of frequencies up to 100 Hz. Thus, the experimental results demonstrate consistent performance of the open-loop control strategy based on Preisach model inversion, in satisfactorily regulating the output of the EM actuator to the desired trajectories.
