中心现招收三个方向PhD
1. Novel Integrated Control of Fluid-borne Noise in Fluid Power Systems
The problem of high noise levels generated by hydraulically powered machines has risen in awareness amongst industry and the general public. Exposure to high noise levels for long periods can result in clinically-significant hearing loss, impaired performance of workers and may also lead to worker fatigue and associated carelessness. Existing passive and active systems or components for fluid-borne noise attenuation have been applied in fluid power systems and shown to be effective to reduce noise. However, they are limited by their heavy weight, bulky size and cancellation bandwidth. This project will investigate a novel integrated noise control system by integrating an active attenuator and passive tuned flexible hoses to obtain an effective, robust and high-bandwidth noise attenuation for fluid power systems.
2. Industry 4.0: Digital Hydraulic System Control
In most hydraulically powered systems, the speed and/or force of a load are controlled using valves to throttle the flow and thus reduce the hydraulic pressure. This is a simple but extremely inefficient method as the excess energy is lost as heat, and it is common for more than 50% of the input power to be wasted in this way. Digital hydraulics, which means hydraulic systems having discrete valued components actively controlling system output, can potentially have higher efficiency and less energy loss. This project will investigate the fundamental of digital hydraulics and their feasibility via analytical modelling and experimental validation.
3. Hydraulic robotics
