Abstract

Displacement controlled actuators offer a very promising alternative and energy saving solution for many applications in mobile machines, mobile robots and other applications. Here, the achievable system dynamics and thus the dynamics of the control element, the variable displacement pump, is often of great concern. It will be shown in this paper that electro-hydraulic pump control allows sufficiently high dynamics for this class of heavy duty actuators, which can in fact compete with conventional valve controlled systems.

Monika Ivantysynova Born on December 11th 1955 in Polenz (Germany). She received her MSc. Degree in Mechanical Engineering and her PhD. Degree in Fluid Power from the Slovak Technical University of Bratislava, Czechoslovakia. After 7 years in fluid power industry she returned to university. In April 1996 she received a Professorship in fluid power & control at the University of Duisburg (Germany). From 1999 until August 2004 she was Professor of Mechatronic Systems at the Technical University of Hamburg-Harburg. Since August 2004 she is Professor at Purdue University, USA. Her main research areas are energy saving actuator technology and model based optimisation of displacement machines as well as modelling, simulation and testing of fluid power systems. Besides the book “Hydrostatic Pumps and Motors” published in German and English, she has published more than 80 papers in technical journals and at international conferences
