Hydraulic models of the human circulatory system allow simulation of hemodynamics in a standardized setting. In this work we use such a model to compare concurrent control strategies for extra-corporal circulation control. Patients suffering from cardio-vascular diseases under extra-corporal circulation can benefit from an automated regulation. The control task is to keep either the pump flow or the pressure in the cardio-vascular system at a constant target value, despite any parameter variations or external perturbations. We implement four control strategies that seem favorable for our task: a Proportional-Integral Controller, a H∞-Controller, a PI-Fuzzy Controller and a Model Reference Adaptive Controller. The methods are compared quantitatively and their advantages and drawbacks are discussed.
