Abstract

Good estimation of flow mapping (FM) and inverse flow mapping (IFM) for electrohydraulic valves are important in automation of fluid power system. The purpose of this paper is to propose adaptive identification methods based on LSM, BPNN, RBFNN, GRNN, LSSVM and RLSM to estimate the uncertain structure and parameters in flow mapping and inverse flow mapping for electrohydraulic valves. In order to reduce the complexity and improve the identification performance, model structures derived from new algorithm are introduced. The above identification methods are applied to map the flow characteristic of an electrohydraulic valve. With the help of novel simulation architecture via OPC UA, the accuracy and efficiency of these algorithms could be verified. Some issues like invertibility of flow mapping are discussed. At last, places and suggestions to apply these methods are made.

Jürgen Weber had studied mechanical engineering at the TU Dresden, and successfully finished his doctorate in 1991. Until 1997, he was the active senior engineer at the former chair of Hydraulics and Pneumatics. This was followed by an approximately 13-year industrial phase. He was active in various positions at the R&D department of the agricultural and construction machinery manufacturer CNH. Besides his occupation as the head of the Department Hydraulics and design manager for mobile and tracked excavators, starting in 2002, he took on responsibility for the hydraulics in construction machinery at CNH worldwide. From 2006 onward, he was the global head of architecture for hydraulic drive and control systems, system integration and advance development of CNH construction machinery. March 1st, 2010, Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Weber has been appointed university professor and chair of Fluid-Mechatronic System Technology at the TU Dresden, and simultaneously took on the leadership of the Institute of Fluid Power. Since 1.7.2018 he is the leader of the Institute of Mechatronic Engineering.
