Research on PSD Replication for Multiaxial Hydraulic Vibration Test System Based on FXLMS Algorithms

Abstract

The multiaxial electrohydraulic vibration test system can not only simulate the multiexcitation on multidimensional vibration environment but also meet the vibration test requirements of high thrust, large displacement, low frequency, etc. In order to eliminate the effects of nonlinear factor and system noise and achieve a more accurate control result, a control algorithm based on the frequency-domain filtered-x least mean square adaptive algorithm (FXLMS) is proposed to achieve the power spectral density (PSD) replication. The main idea is to use the frequency-domain FXLMS algorithm to adjust the controller adaptively corresponding to the transfer function uncertainty and changes of the plant, which are typically caused by time-varying parameters in electrohydraulic actuators and system noise. The details and implantation steps of the proposed algorithm are analysed for the single-input single-output electrohydraulic vibration test system. The proposed algorithm and control strategy are then extended to the multiaxial electrohydraulic vibration test system. Eventually, some experimental targets for performing the PSD replication test on a two-exciter system are carried out, in which the results show that the proposed algorithm is valid and meets the test standards..
