## Abstract Water hydraulic systems use water as a pressure medium and, thus, do not pose such adverse environmental impacts as oil hydraulics. Microbial deterioration of the pressure medium and biofouling of the surfaces restrict the applicability of the waterβbased technology. The potential of mi

β¦ Synopsis
Basic equations for transient flow of a slightly compressible fluid in a metal tubing are derived for both laminar and turbulent flow. Applying the equations to hydraulic control systems, it is shown (1) that the saturation limit of a valve controlled servomotor supplied by a conduit of length I is considerably lower than its steady state value during the first 21/c second following a step input, and (2) that the effects of connecting conduits in displacement controlled systems are to cause a dead time of l/c second and to produce undesirable pressure echoes which can be eliminated by properly matching the conduits to the system as shown in the paper. The wave speed C is approximately 5000 feet per second depending on the parameters.

A fuzzy logic controller is designed to implement variable series capacitor compensation in the transmission network of interconnected power systems. This compensation scheme is one of the most widely accepted as a solution to limitations created by overstretched generation and transmission systems.
