Slide 8

The actuator control system consists of two parts, the axial control and the rotation control. The rotation control can be applied by specifying a pre-programmed rotation or torque history. For example, we can specify a rotation of one degree per second or apply a torque loading of ten newton meters per second. The axial control can be used to apply an axial load or displacement history. Feedback is used to maintain control and is shown on the next slide.
