Hydraulic Systems Modeling and Simulation for Application Engineers

This 27-hour seminar focuses on the technique of building mathematical models with the least amount of design parameters needed. This technique is designed to help application engineers who are responsible for modeling systems at large. The simulation process of a component is based on existing data published by the component manufacturer or subsystem dynamics identified experimentally.

Who Should Attend?
Hydraulic component designers, application engineers, system integrators, electrohydraulic motion control engineers, and end users of fluid power components and systems. Familiarity with Laplace transforms, block diagrams and state space is desirable for portions of the dynamic analysis.

Objectives
Upon completion, participants should be able to:
  • evaluate the importance of component sizing and simulation in the design process.
  • apply principles of steady state and limited dynamic characteristics in both time domain and frequency domain.
  • discuss different modeling approaches and levels for hydraulic components and systems.
  • discuss the differences between simulation packages available in the market.
  • exercise knowledge using MATLAB®/Simulink® to build mathematical models, define the simulation parameters, run a simulation and analyze the results.
Laboratory Sessions
This seminar involves many laboratory exercises including software simulation. Some of these include component performance capturing experimentally, identify its dynamics, use the identified dynamics in building the component model.
