Which outcome occurs when an overly aggressive control strategy is applied to hydraulic actuator speed?

💡 Explanation

Actuator oscillations occur with aggressive controls because the spool valve's bandwidth is too low for the imposed *gain margin*; therefore the actuator overshoots its target position and oscillates, rather than smoothly settling, due to system lag and instability.
