Design and Advanced Control of Intelligent Large-Scale Hydraulic Synchronization Lifting Systems

الملخص EN

Lifting systems are in great demand since more and more massive buildings or bridges tend to be shifted or lifted integrally.

Hydraulic cylinders in traditional lifting systems are usually supplied by a common pump with an oil tank, which brings long distance hydraulic pipes and signal lines.

This paper designs a new architecture of an intelligent lifting system, with self-contained hydraulic power supply system, wireless communication modules, and distributed controller.

Based on the designed architecture of the intelligent lifting system, an advanced iterative learning control strategy is proposed to enhance its synchronization performance.

With the proposed advanced control strategy, synchronization is achieved in a finite time interval even under the effect of communication time delays and saturations.

The distributed controller of a lifting subsystem only uses the delayed information received from subsystems around.

This is distinguished from traditional lifting systems, in which all of the lifting subsystems are normally controlled in a centralized way.
