LEARNING OUTCOMES
After the course the student is able to:
- Describe the principles of modeling and simulation and the potentials of these in system design and analysis
- Use some modeling and simulation environment/software (Matlab ja Simulink)
- Identify (analyze) dynamic structures of hydraulic systems
- Create models for static and dynamic elements (hydraulic and pneumatic components and systems) and run simulations with them
- Identify (analyze) parameter values for models from component catalogs and measurement results
- Analyze dynamic characteristics of hydraulic systems with the help of measurement data (step and frequency responses)
- Analyze the operation of hydraulic systems by modeling and simulation
- Understand the factors which affect the energy consumption of hydraulic systems and how the energy efficiency can be enhanced by changes in system parameters and architectures
- Evaluate critically the quality and deficiencies of a component or system model (i.e. validate the model using measurement data)
- Design and tune an electrohydraulic position, speed and force servo by using modeling and simulation
- Estimate the quality of an electrohydraulic position, speed and force servo by modeling and simulation
- Create well-defined and comprehensive modeling and simulation documents
- Describe the principle of real-time simulation and the special demands of it
