Adaptive robust motion control for hydraulic load sensitive systems considering displacement dynamic compensation.

Hydraulic load-sensitive systems (HLSS) are widely used for high power density and energy efficiency. This study introduces an adaptive, energy-efficient HLSS with a valve-controlled variable motor. The system faces challenges from non-linearities, including internal higher-order dynamics due to displacement changes and external unknown disturbances, which hinder precision applications. To address this issue, this study explores HLSS principles to develop an accurate system model. Subsequently, an adaptive robust motion control that considers displacement compensation (DCARC) is proposed using the established model. DCARC can learn unknown parameters online and compensate the model more accurately to improve control accuracy. Experiments show that considering the higher order dynamic effects caused by displacement in the system can improve model accuracy and effectively reduce the burden of parameter adaptation and robust feedback terms. High-precision and energy-efficient HLSS motion is verified and realized in the study. The control accuracy of DCARC is 19.4% higher than that of conventional adaptive robust control (ARC). Under experimental conditions, the proposed system can improve energy efficiency by up to five times compared to valve-controlled fixed displacement motor systems (VFDS).
