Servo Control System for Universal Panel Tester

这个项目是一个设备补助金 要求升级现有的 万能板材试验机. 休斯顿大学用于 地震研究 钢筋混凝土抗力 墙和利用高- 墙式高性能混凝土 和壳型结构。 在这些 测试类型（包括循环 加载），伺服控制系统， 控制…的应变或变形 需要样本。 资金 将需要购买， 安装这种自动化的 伺服控制系统 升级后，这个通用面板 测试员将成为最 在世界上多才多艺，并将开放 开辟新的研究领域 试件经受复合 压力状态。 除了 钢筋混凝土，通用 面板测试仪也可用于 由钢，铝， 木材或其它复合材料。

This project is an equipment grant request for upgrading the existing universal panel testing machine at the University of Houston for use in the study of the earthquake resistance of reinforced concrete walls and the utilization of high- performance concrete in wall-type and shell-type structures. In these types of testing (including cyclic loadings), a servo control system to control the strain or deformation of the specimen is required. Funds will be needed for the purchase and installation of such an automated servo control systems. When upgraded, this universal panel tester will become one of the most versatile in the world and will open up new areas for research on specimens subjected to complex stress states. In addition to reinforced concrete, the universal panel tester can also be used to test panels made of steel, aluminum, wood or other composite materials.
