Signal analysis, modeling and simulation of vehicle crash dynamics
Masteroppgave i mekatronikk MAS500 2013 – Universitetet i Agder, Grimstad Vehicle crash safety has been a strong point of interest for long time in many countries due to the reason that safety statistics show high fatality rate of vehicle occupants involved in road accidents. All vehicles which are going to appear on the road must go through several serious crash investigations to approve whether they conform to the relevant safety standards. There are large crash test facilities built by big companies for these operations. However, a wide and full-scale crash testing is complex, di cult and expensive that demands many things to be ful lled. Because of these and other reasons, mathematical …
Hardware-in-the-loop implementation for an active heave compensated drawworks
Published version of an article published in the journal: Central European Journal of Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.2478/s13531-011-0062-1 This paper presents the setup and running of a hardware-in-loop (HIL) simulation for an active heave compensated (AHC) draw-works. A simulation model of the draw-works is executed on a PC to simulate the AHC draw-works with a physical PLC. The PLC (ET200S) is configured with a controller architecture that regulates the motor angular displacement and velocity through actuation of the servo valves. Furthermore, a graphical user interface is developed for operation of the AHC system. The HIL test allowed tuning of t…
