Abstract:
Electro-Mechanical Actuator (EMA) is the key component in the guidance systems of missiles to convert electrical power into mechanical power. EMAs have shown significant improvement in response times and are more reliable compared to other actuators. This paper proposes a Simulink model for linear electromechanical actuator which is very efficient and can withstand noise and disturbances. Electromechanical actuators are mechanical actuators where the control handle has been supplanted by an electric motor. This model is subjected to sudden loads and disturbances and the precise actuation is obtained within the specified settling time. The model is also subjected to nonlinearities and the results were found out to be competent.
