Abstract
This chapter is intended as a brief introduction to the basic concepts used in analysing hydraulic control systems. To simplify the analysis, we shall consider a mechanical—hydraulic valve-operated cylinder system, shown diagrammatically in Fig. 11.1, and represented by the block diagram Fig. 11.2. In the position control system shown in Fig. 11.1, the cylinder piston rod is anchored, and the input acts directly on the valve spool, so that the displacement of the valve spool is a direct measure of system error, or
