In the research and development of the precise closed-loop control system in large hydraulic press, the touch screen and PLC are frequently applied to design, debug and test for the system. Though a better closed-loop control characteristic can be acquired after repeated testing by this way, the comprehensive state data of hydraulic press are unable to get, which leads to a long research cycle and also restricts the maintenance and upgrade with the equipment in the later period. In order to obtain the whole state information of hydraulic press easily and effectively, a monitor system of precise closed-loop control in large hydraulic press is designed. Based on reasonable cooperation of sensors and high-speed data-acquisition card, high-speed and precise signal acquisition is realized. In addition, data-acquisition software program is designed base on LabVIEW, it can achieve the functions of collecting, storing, displaying and analyzing data. Through the real measuring and analyzing on a certain large ceramic hydraulic press, the status of key parameters can be acquired effectively during the whole pressing process. So the monitoring system supplies the significant data basis to the precise closed-loop control, accelerates the design and development of high characteristic precise closed-loop control and also strongly supports to the maintenance and upgrade with the equipments in the later period.

The application of automation and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems to municipal water and wastewater treatment plants is rapidly increasing. However, the application of these systems is less frequent in the research and development phases of emerging treatment technologies used in these industries. This study involved the implementation of automation and a SCADA system to the submerged membrane adsorption hybrid system for use in a semi-pilot scale research project. An incremental approach was used in the development of the automation and SCADA systems, leading to the development of two new control systems. The first system developed involved closed loop control of the backwash initiation, based upon a pressure increase, leading to productivity improvements as the backwash is only activated when required, not at a fixed time. This system resulted in a 40% reduction in the number of backwashes required and also enabled optimised operations under unsteady concentrations of wastewater. The second system developed involved closed loop control of the backwash duration, whereby the backwash was terminated when the pressure reached a steady state. This system resulted in a reduction of the duration of the backwash of up to 25% and enabled optimised operations as the foulant build-up within the reactor increased.

For the effective use of modern tools, the inherent visuo-motor transformation needs to be mastered. The successful adjustment to and learning of these transformations crucially depends on practice conditions, particularly on the type of visual feedback during practice. Here, a review about empirical research exploring the influence of continuous and terminal visual feedback during practice on the mastery of visuo-motor transformations is provided. Two studies investigating the impact of the type of visual feedback on either direction-dependent visuo-motor gains or the complex visuo-motor transformation of a virtual two-sided lever are presented in more detail. The findings of these studies indicate that the continuous availability of visual feedback supports performance when closed-loop control is possible, but impairs performance when visual input is no longer available. Different approaches to explain these performance differences due to the type of visual feedback during practice are considered. For example, these differences could reflect a process of re-optimization of motor planning in a novel environment or represent effects of the specificity of practice. Furthermore, differences in the allocation of attention during movements with terminal and continuous visual feedback could account for the observed differences.
