Accurate pressure prediction of a servo-valve controlled hydraulic system

2012-10-01
The main goal of this paper is to predict the chamber pressures in hydraulic cylinder of a servo-valve controlled hydraulic system accurately using advanced modeling tools like artificial neural networks. After showing that the black-box modeling approaches are not sufficient for long-term prediction of pressures, a structured neural network model is proposed to capture the pressure dynamics of this inherently non-linear system. The paper shows that the proposed network model could be easily trained to predict the pressure dynamics of an experimental hydraulic test setup provided that the training session is initiated with the weights of the developed model.

Mansour, MY; Dicleli, Murat; Lee, JY; Zhang, J (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-01)
The application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the ultimate shear strengths of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with transverse reinforcements is investigated in this paper. An ANN model is built, trained and tested using the available test data of 176 RC beams collected from the technical literature. The data used in the ANN model are arranged in a format of nine input parameters that cover the cylinder concrete compressive strength, yield strength of the longitudinal and transverse reinforc...
