Which action minimizes 'stick-slip' behavior in slow-moving hydraulic actuators?

A)Dithering the actuator signal
B)Decreasing fluid bulk modulus
C)Increasing system operating pressure
D)Using unpressurized storage accumulators

💡 Explanation

Dithering introduces a small oscillatory signal, breaking static friction via the Stribeck effect; because friction force momentarily drops, continuous, smooth motion results, rather than jerky movement. Therefore, stick-slip is reduced rather than worsened by static friction increase under pressure.
