Friction and the internal leakage significantly deteriorates the performance of an electro-hydraulic servo system. Hence, an adaptive scheme could be better choice to handle these effects. Therefore, in this paper a Self-tuning fuzzy PID (SFPID) control scheme is employed for the position tracking p...
