Fluid control systems are being applied in many industrial fields such as automobiles (suspension, power steering, 4WS, ABS),
construction equipments, industrial robots, various automated machines, and aseismic devices in high-rise buildings. This
course will discuss the elements (equipments) constituting these fluid control systems and introduce their characteristics
and applications. As well, explanations will also be provided on design methods when configuring them into systems, dynamic
properties analysis and simulation techniques to understand system behavior, and control system design methods for hydraulic
control systems, pneumatic control systems, and functional fluid devices, etc. while citing specific examples of applications.
The first part of this course will include lectures on control engineering which will be indispensable as basic knowledge.
Students have to understand the configuration machineries in the fluid control system and master the control system analysis
design approach, because fluid control systems are widely used in many industrial fields.
- Review the basics of control engineering, which applied to the fluid control system
