Actuator Control for a Rapid Prototyping Railway Bogie, Using a Dynamically Substructured Systems Approach

A rapid prototyping bogie (RPB) has multiple actuators to emulate missing bogie components. In the original RPB hybrid control system, deterioration in the control performance, which was caused by dynamic coupling between the multiple actuators, was observed during the RPB performance tests. To solve this issue, a new controller was...
