A control system for a self-propelled boom sprayer to spray at uniform application rate was developed and evaluated. The ground speed of the sprayer was converted into voltage. The voltage was used as an input signal. Output signal was current of a servo motor, that controlled application pressure of the sprayer with a feedback control system. Spraying was executed at the pressure of 20~55 psi and the speed of 0.640~0.696 km/hr and 1.040-1.131 km/hr. Although the pressure and the speed of sprayer were changed continuously, application rate was tried to keep a nearly constant amount of 666.67 L/ha. This result showed that the developed control system for uniform application rate was adoptable for the self-propelled sprayer.

The rule bases self organizing controller(SOC) has one of its main advantages in the fact that there is no need to have a mathematical description of the system to be controlled. In this controller, the rules are linguistics statements expressed mathematically through the concepts of fuzzy sets and correspond to the actions a human operator would take when controlling a given process. With this controller, we have performed to sight stabilization system, and we realize that it needs a scale factor tuning. The self tuning controller(STC) uses an instantaneous system fuzzy performance which can give an inspection to the scale factor. Therefore, the STC can compensate the scale factor when it is not adequately tuned. With this trial, we shows that STC can give a good transient characteristics in the nonlinearity which imposed basically in the conventional servo system.

This paper provides a practical control scheme called three-step input method in order to minimize both robot response time and the resulting residual vibration when the robot manipulator reaches its defined end point. This work is concerned with defining a simple practical method to utilize step inputs to achieve optimum response. The optimum response is achieved by using a self- adjusting input command function that is obtained during a real time processing . The practicality of this control scheme is demonstrated by using an analog computer to simulate a simulate a simple flexible robot and conventional servo controller. The experiments focus on point-to-point movement. Also, this method requires little computational effort through the intelligent use of conventional servo control technology and the robot's vibration characteristics.

A Direct Drive Valve(DDV) hydraulic actuation system which is commonly used as an aircraft's control surface driving actuator has multi-loop control structure to ensure its safety operation. However, because of not perfect matching of one self channel characteristics with the others, the servo valve driving current of each channel can be widely different. Therefore, the long-time use of DDV actuator without any correction of these channel current offsets will cause the problem of performance or life expectancy degradation due to unwanted heats in the linear motor. A current equalization loop structure which can minimizes current offsets between channels is introduced and designed. The performance of the current equalization loop is investigated and verified through the analytic and experimental ways.

The purpose of this paper is to study on the control of a self-activated cable spooling system for towed away handling winch using a hydraulic servo driving unit and a cable position measurement mechanism. To design a controller of the cable spooling system, it is carried out the analysis of the hydraulic servo system and derived the relationship of a parameters through the control theory. Also, it is derived from the control specfications using settling rotation angle and spooling safety ratio proposed to the analysis for the behavior of the system. The cable spooling system is tested and evaluated to validate the performance of the controller.

A servo control algorithm robust under disturbance and reference change is developed using the self tuning control method based on the concept of the least distribution control. Also, the design algorithm incorporates the concepts of the well known internal model principle and the annihilator polynomial. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the method, MAGLEV (Magnetic Levitation) system is used and the position control experiment for reference changes and disturbances of step type is done.

In this paper, a class of neural-network controllers with two inputs of error and error change, is applied to the position control of D.C. servo system. The proposed controller is learned by error back-propagating error information to compensate the weighting value using its previous derivatives and to decrease exponentially a series of self learning coefficients. Through the simulations and implementations, the effectiveness and superiority to the conventional fuzzy controller is proved.

Many industrial servo amplifiers employ power transister as output device. Thyristor converters are not adopted to drive servo motor, although thyristor is superior to power TR in power rating, noise immunity, price, and size. The reason is, thyristor has no ability of self turn - off. Here in this paper line commutation, in which thyristor is turned off naturally since cathode voltage is higher than anode as time goes by, is employed to turn on thyristor with a delicate sequence. We developed thyristor servo amplifier which does not cause any damage on thyristor because it is designed to prevent triggering the two SCRs in the same arm simultaneously. And it was made clearly how to trigger SCR without any power line shorting and also harmonic analysis is carried out with the aid of FFT analyzer and proved that it can be used even severe reactive load. The designed circuit operated as a good DC amplifier in conventinal servomotor and the results can be use as a position control system application.
