Abstract

In different industrial processes in which position and force control are desired,  electro-hydraulic systems have a widespread area of utilization. Models of electrohydraulic systems include high order nonlinearity. In this study, a gain scheduling  linear model corresponded with nonlinear model of a hydraulic force actuator  system is developed. The proposed model is constituted in two distinct and  consecutive stages. In the first step, nonlinear terms caused to nonlinearity are  described by the means of measurable or observable system parameters and  embedded in a nonlinear scheduling parameter. Thus, the scheduling parameter is  continuously extracted from main system. In the second step, the nonlinear system  equation is rearranged by the scheduling parameter and by this way parameter  varying linear model is obtained. The simulations which are performed by use of  Matlab-Simulink computer program show that the proposed model rightly fits to  the nonlinear system model.
