Abstract
Hydraulic power systems have greater flexibility and can produce more power than mechanical and electrical systems of equal size. The aim of this paper is to describe results derived from an experimental study on a power hydraulic testing machine with hybrid force and position control. The paper includes the description and fabrication of this novel testing system, named electro-hydraulic load simulator (EHLS), for conducting a performance and stability test in a bench system where force or position control is important. In order to improve the control performance of the loading system and to eliminate or reduce noise, a parallel force and position control strategy using the proportional integral derivative (PID) control method, an online self-tuning fuzzy-neural mechanism, and system identification techniques are also presented in this paper. Experiments are carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed parallel force and position control method applied to the EHLS system.
