Research Areas
The research is oriented towards system engineering with a focus on motion control systems. The activities are equally divided in theoretical and experimental research and are divided in four major activity areas:
- Fluid and Mechanical Engineering Systems Control and Design
- Modelling, Simulation and System Optimization
- Noise & Vibration Control and Condition Monitoring
- Autonomous mechanical systems
Fluid Power Technology as a research area covering the three first mentioned activity areas was introduced at Linköping University to support a strongly growing industrial sector where Swedish industry has a leading position.
Autonomous Mechanical Systems initiated in 1989 mainly treats sensor fusion and range sensors.
