De regeling van het Mach getal in de hoge snelheids tunnel van het NLR

The High Speed wind Tunnel (HST) of the National Aerospace Laboratory NLR is one of the major transonic windtunnels and is used for aerodynamic research on scale models. The measurements require the control of the Mach number. Two kinds of controller tasks can be distinguished: keeping the Mach number constant, and realizing a different Mach...

Synthesis of local control for a robotic manipulator joint

The objective of the study is the synthesis of an algorithm for the automatic control of an electromechanical actuator in the rotational joint of a multi-link, robotic manipulator. Control performance is assessed in terms of ability of the controlled joint to follow a commanded joint angle, or a commanded joint angular rate. Part One of the...
