...Zbigniew Kamiński Pipes are widely used in hydraulic and pneumatic subsystems for transferring energy or signals. Accurate prediction of pressure transients is very important in the drive and control circuits of complex fluid-line systems. Based on the approximation of Navier-Stokes equations...

...M. Brian Thomas; Gary P. Maul Pneumatic actuators can be advantageous over electromagnetic and hydraulic actuators in many servo motion applications. The difficulty in their practical use comes from the highly nonlinear dynamics of the actuator and control valve. Previous works have used...
