A detailed study was carried out to understand the dynamics of pressure variations at different points in the injection-molding system. Thus, hydraulic, nozzle, and cavity pressures were evaluated, in addition to the pressure gradient in the cavity. Both steps and pseudorandom binary sequences (PRBS) were employed to obtain and compare dynamic models describing these variables. Subsequently, these models were employed to evaluate and select optimal controllers for the different variables.
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.
