In memory of Dr. Monika Ivantysynova, Maha Fluid Power Reserach Center at Purdue University, is organizing a Fluid Power Conference in collaboration with Center for Compact and Efficient Fluid Power. The event will be held on June 4-6, 2019. More details about this event will soon be posted on Fluid Power Events page.
To honor the late Dr. Monika Ivantysynova (1955-2018), a renowned researcher in the field of fluid power, we bring to you the highlights of her most significant research work. Dr. Ivantysynova spent last two decades of her life advocating for displacement-controlled (DC) actuation systems. Read more here to learn more about her research group's effort on developing DC actuated hydraulic hybrid excavator.
