Hi All,
After solving my optimal control problem, I am facing one more problem. I need to control a rotation acceleration using an electric motor. I need to make decision between stepmotor or brushless DC servo. The goal is to have control an angular acceleration. (Due to the fact that my dynamic equation includes second order derivative of a rotational angle.). What are the pros and cons for the two options? How to control the angular acceleration?
The motor will be used to drive a inertial load of about 0.15 kg* m^2. The rotation speed is from 0 to +- 33 rpm with peak torque of about
10 Nm.Thanks a lot in advance,
