9451300 Slater The proposed project addresses the use of electrohydraulic test stands to educate undergraduate engineers in the area of controls, instrumentation, and fluid power. The test stands will allow students to quantitatively evaluate design changes relative to system performance on a real-time basis. Total system response including transient and steady state can be monitored and analyzed. This integrated, interdisciplinary approach provides the student with an exposure to computer-aided design/analysis methods for real-time electrohydraulic control system design. In parallel, software-based simulation methods will be used to develop models which can be verified in the laboratory. Direct verification of principles provides reinforcement and builds student confidence. Structured methods of logical system design and diagnostic identification provide students with valuable experience for use in open-ended industrial design projects, which culminate the senior year. This problem solving/project experience and computer design/analysis skills are important capabilities required in today's global economy. The proposed project is innovative in that the use of electrohydraulic technology for undergraduate instruction in controls requires an interdisciplinary approach using fluid power, electronics and computers as opposed to teaching control systems within a single discipline such as electrical, pneumatic, mechanical, etc. Dissemination of the results will be through seminars open to both academia and industry. Past history has shown this to be an effective method for dissemination and adoption of the methods employed in undergraduate education and industrial instruction.

9451300斯莱特拟议的项目解决了使用电动液压试验台，教育本科工程师在控制，仪器仪表和流体动力领域。该测试台将允许学生实时定量评估相对于系统性能的设计变化。整个系统的响应包括瞬态和稳态可以监测和分析。 这种综合的跨学科方法为学生提供了接触实时电液控制系统设计的计算机辅助设计/分析方法。与此同时，将使用基于软件的模拟方法来开发可在实验室中验证的模型。对原理的直接验证提供了强化，并建立了学生的信心。 逻辑系统设计和诊断识别的结构化方法为学生提供了在开放式工业设计项目中使用的宝贵经验，这些项目在大四达到高潮。这种解决问题/项目经验和计算机设计/分析技能是当今全球经济所需的重要能力。该项目的创新之处在于，在控制本科教学中使用电液技术需要使用流体动力，电子和计算机的跨学科方法，而不是在单一学科中教授控制系统，如电气，气动，机械等。 将通过向学术界和工业界开放的研讨会传播成果。过去的历史表明，这是传播和采用本科教育和工业教学方法的有效方法。
