Project 1

PROJECT :

Develop a double-acting actuator model using simscape multibody and simscape components.The mechanical system of the cylinder needs to be built using simscape multibody library components/blocks, and the hydraulic system needs to be modelled using simscape library physical components.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SIMPLE HYDRAULICALLY ACTUATED SYSTEM :

Mechanical System

• Ground,gravity and inertia reference system
• Three bodies
• Three joints

Hydraulic System

• Tank
• Directional Control Valve
• Hydraulic Actuator(Double acting)

EXPLANATION :

*Initially a standard format file was opened using a smnew command.

*They consists of mechanism configuration,world frame,solver and ps to simulink converter.

*Later three body was selected and the required parameters were fed.

*Then the rigid block was taken and connected and the parameters were fed according to the requirements.

*Finally the model was made to run and the result was observed.

*Now the multibody part is over.

*Next the hydraulic system needs to be modelled using the simscape library physical components.

*All the required blocks for the hydraulic system was selected and the parameters were given and connected.

*Then an actuator was selected.

*Once the hydraulic system was completed it was connected to the multibody components.

*The model was again made to run and the desired output was obtained.

*The simulink model has been attached for reference.
