Control of a Linear Electric Actuator

This example shows how to use slTuner and systune to tune the current and velocity

loops in a linear electric actuator with saturation limits.

Linear Electric Actuator Model

Open the Simulink model of the linear electric actuator:

open_system('rct_linact')

The electrical and mechanical components are modeled using Simscape Electrical and

Simscape Multibody. The control system consists of two cascaded feedback loops

controlling the driving current and angular speed of the DC motor.
