Abstract Full-scale structural testing of aircraft structures has been and still is the task of the aircraft industry A proportion-integration-differentiation (PID) when new aircrafts are developed. In recent years, controller is a generic control loop feedback as China has been developing the aviation industry mechanism widely used in multi-channel aircraft and the research has been entering into a new stage, structural fatigue test. The PID parameter is the requirements of aircraft structure fatigue test obtained by test setup method in which PID is tuned become increasing. Aircraft structure fatigue test after the test setup is actually performed, so that the employ multi-channel coordinated loading control tuning period becomes overlong. And the dynamic system to drive the hydraulic system to apply load characteristic of mechanical and hydraulic spectrum to aircraft structure. Fatigue test system equipment isn’t considered as a crucial factor to adopts PID control. Namely, the testing system decrease working capability of loading equipment. calculates the control quantity by PID algorithm at the same time, there is coupling effect among based on system error. Currently, the tuning to PID channels, which lower control accuracy. For this, of test system is completed using experience after based on multi-channel fatigue test of cantilever test setup installation, so that the PID prediction is beam, the coupling mathematics model of testing difficult to implement to increase tuning time to system is presented and linearized reasonably. The impact test cycle. And dynamic characteristics of basic procedure of a multi-channel fatigue test is the mechanical and hydraulic equipment have not analyzed systematically. The PID parameter of considered fully, and the capacity of loading every channel is simulated by stability margin and equipment is not enough. Worse, the coupling bandwidth analysis. The dynamic characteristic of phenomenon among the actuator cylinders has been hydraulic equipment and test article are analyzed. occurring. Finally, a double channel fatigue test of cantilever Due to the above problems, aircraft structural test beam is implemented. The results of simulation and cannot be run smoothly, and the test results cycle test show that the new method is effective. This are affected seriously. For this, in 2010, Eenkhoorn method not only has the ability to predict PID N.C. of Delft University of Technology in the parameter rapidly and the dynamic characteristic of Netherlands has carried out the PID simulation in test equipment, but it can also reduce effectively the single channel structural fatigue[1]. Despite control errors. controller, hydraulic system and test article are 1 Introduce coupled, Dr E has not yet researched multi-channel test system, and the methods have not been applied 1 HONGWEI ZHAO, SHIHUI DUAN & JIANMIN FENG

in engineering. In 2012, Xiasheng of aircraft fatigue test system as the research object. The strength research institute of China have studied the mathematical model of subsystem is presented. PID simulation of control channel for MTS control The coupling characteristic of test system is system[2]. This method is just focus on the analyzed. The PID parameter of every channel is controller, not the hydraulic system and test article. simulated to compensate coupling effect among In 2015, Shihui Duan of aircraft strength research channels. Dynamic characteristic of hydraulic institute of China has simulated PID parameter of system is described to improve capacity to testing the cantilever beam structure test system[3]. The system. control system, hydraulic system and mechanical system are coupled to tune PID of the testing 2 Modelling Theory system. This method is applied to structural tests. Unfortunately, the method is based on single 2.1 Modelling of servo-valve channel test system. The structure of the force feedback two stage servo The above researches are almost related to single valve is shown in Fig. 1. The valve keeps a good channel fatigue test system, so the multi-channel linear, due to Armature and Baffle working in the test system research is increasingly important. zero position. Therefore, in 2010, professor Huaihai of nanjing university of aeronautics and astronautics has studied variable parameter PID control method for multiple input multiple output random vibration test[4]. The basic procedure of multiple input multiple output random vibration test is analyzed systematically in the article. A definition of control error under logarithmic coordinates is provided, a new PID control strategy is introduced into the control algorithm. But the method does not take into account the hydraulic system and test article 1. Magnet 2. Lower guide magnet 3. Armature 4. Coil 5. Spring tube effecting to PID and control error. In 2013, 6. Upper guide magnet 7. Nozzle 8. Slide valve 9. Fixed orifice professor Jianyu Zhao of jinan university has Fig. 1 Principle diagram of servo vavle studied multi-channel coordinated loading control method[5]. This approach is based on neural There is a large number of parameters in the network algorithm. But it is not involving the structure of servo valve, so the dynamic hydraulic system and test article of testing system. characteristic of armature motor and nozzle flapper The other researching refer to the hydraulic is ignored. The paper just researches dynamic system[6~7] or control system[8~10] or developing characteristic of spool[20~21].

As Fig. 12 shown, h=1.12 dB, θ=0.539 deg. Channel I is stable, While B=15 Hz, tracking performance of control signal is well. In the same way, As Fig. 13 shown, h=8.75 dB, θ=3.71 deg. Channel J is stable too, While B=18 Hz, tracking performance of control signal is better than channel I. In fact, due to fault tolerance to controller parameter, it is reasonable that the predicted PID is in the scope.
