ABE 463 Electrohydraulic Systems
Electrohydraulic systems control is a very important technical theme for off-road equipment engineering. This course is designed to provide an interactive and hands-on learning environment for students learning the fundamentals and basic skills of electrohydraulic systems control. The main topics covered in this course include, but not limited to, basics of fluid power transmission, fundamentals of electrohydraulic control, control of electrohydraulic systems, and controller design for electrohydraulic systems. The learning process will be completed through regular lectures, case studies, and laboratory exercises.
3 Credit Hours.
Course Objectives:
This course aims to develop students' capability on design electrohydraulic systems and E/H control systems. Through studying this course, students are expected to be able to:
- explain how a typical electrohydraulic system works
- create schematics of electrohydraulic system using standard symbols
- design simple electrohydraulic systems
- model valve controlled electrohydraulic systems
- analyze performances of valve controlled E/H systems
- design simple controllers for valve controlled E/H systems
Course Grading:
The approximate cutoffs for grades of [A, B, C, D, F] = [900, 800, 700, 600, 0]
