Electro-Hydraulic Actuator (EHA) replaces centralized hydraulic system by a local compact actuator system. It is gaining more attention due to its compactness and reliability. The control method should be appropriate to achieve accurate position control and stability. The EHA system model is developed in AMESim software and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control is used for position tracking of the cylinder. Design Exploration facility of AMESim software provides a platform to optimize PID parameters using Genetic Algorithm (GA). Simulation results show that position tracking with no overshoot and less settling time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
