Abstract :
This paper deals with the dynamic modelling and subsequent control design and testing of a complex electro-hydraulic system. Modelling is based on physical laws and system knowledge. The main idea is to obtain a simple and reliable model that can be used for controller synthesis and implementation. A subsequent controller design procedure is made by using the architecture of embedded model control. The effectiveness of the obtained controller is then validated by simulation experiments.
