Course content
In the manufacturing industry, various control systems with fluid actuators have important functions. Hydraulic and pneumatic driving systems, which are the typical control systems with fluid actuator, are applied to many engineering fields (various automatic machines, industrial robots, vehicles, construction machineries, seismic equipment of high-rise building, etc.). The lecture discusses the elements constituting these hydraulic and pneumatic driving systems and introduces their characteristics and applications. As well, explanations are also provided on design methods when configuring them into systems, dynamic properties analysis and simulation techniques to understand system behavior, and control system design methods.
Purpose of class
Students have to review the fluid mechanics and control engineering, and master the control system analysis design approach in the fluid control system, because there are many applications of the fluid control systems in many industrial fields.
