Experimental studies on the adaptive multi-mode vibration control of composite beams have been performed using neuro-controller. Neuro-controllers require too much computational burden, which blocks wide real-time applications of neuro-controllers. Therefore, in this paper, an adaptive notch filter is proposed to separate a vibration signal into each modal vibration signal. Two neuro-controllers with fewer weights are connected to the corresponding modal signals to generate proper modal control forces. The vibration controls using the adaptive notch filter and neuro-controllers have been performed for two specimens. A and B, which have different natural frequencies because of different positions of tip masses. Significant vibration reduction has been observed in both cases. The vibration control results show that the present neuro-controller has good adaptiveness under the system parameter variations.

In this paper, the vibration for actuators having lens module, confined to lateral and torsional directions of suspensions, is described by mathematically analyzing its suspension configuration and motion. In order to prove the accuracy of this result, it is compared to a finite element analysis. Also it is shown that modal frequencies can be modified by changing design parameters in mathematical motion expressions.

Rigid plate elastically supported at the edges is modeled and the performance of the optimal vibration control under sinusoidal excitation is tested. The controller based on the linear quadratic regulator with output feedback is designed to control the multi-degree of freedom vibration. Relative weighting parameters are considered as design constraints to determine the limitation of maximum control force and state parameters. Control force calculated by proportional output feedback of the displacement and velocity is used to suppress the vibration induced by the sinusoidal external force. The active vibration control of vibrating plate by the LQR controller is examined through the numerical simulations that show the effectiveness of optimal control scheme on the three degrees of freedom structure.

In this paper, the purpose is to investigate the stability and variation of natural frequency of a Timoshenko cantilever beam subjected to follower force and tip mass. In addition, an analysis of the flutter instability(flutter critical follower force) of a cantilever beam as slenderness ratio is investigated. The governing differential equations of a Timoshenko beam subjected to an end tangential follower force is derived via Hamilton;s principle. The two coupled governing differential equations are reduced to one fourth order ordinary differential equation in terms of the flexural displacement. Finally, the influence of the slenderness ratio and tip mass on the critical follower force and the natural frequency of a Timoshenko beam are investigated.

Gabion can be used for the purpose of preventing overflow of river and side loss of road. However the manufacturing process of the gabion is manually controlled especially to the joining process at the terminal part of gabion with small diameter wire. In this paper automatic feeding guide system was designed and fabricated to make automation. The fabricated system was tested in the factory level. Pneumatic system was considered as the main idea of the feeding system. 3/2-way and 5/2-way manual control valve, eight double-acting cylinders were used. The system took 46.48 seconds during a cycle. Additional environmental noise and vibration were not detected when the machine operated at the working area. Based on the theoretical simulation and actual test the fabricated system was well controlled. The system was applied to the patent in 2006.

The problem considered in this paper is that the tip position of a flexible cantilever beam is controlled to follow a command signal, using a pair of piezoelectric actuators at the clamped end. The beam is lightly damped and so the natural transient response is rather long, and also since the sensor and actuator are not collocated, the plant response is non-minimum phase. Two control strategies were investigated. The first involved conventional PID control in which the feedback gains were adjusted to give the fastest closed-loop response to a step input. The second control strategy was based on an internal model control (IMC) architecture. The control filter in the IMC controller was a digital FIR device designed to minimize the expectation of the mean square tracking error. The IMC controller designed fur the beam was found to have very much reduced settling times to a step input compared with those of the PID controller.

Thermal vibration characteristics of a thin walled composite beam attached on spacecraft are investigated in this paper. The composite beam is assumed to have a thin CUS(circumferentially uniform stiffness) wall and modeled with several composite materials which are already space qualified such as T300/Epoxy, YS90AEpoxy. Steady state angle and peak to peak error in spacecraft attitude angle and tip displacement of composite beams are evaluated as a performance index for thermal vibration characteristics. Evaluation results shows that composite beam made out of YS90A has nearly 2 times better than T300 in terms of peak to peak attitude error angle.

In this paper, the purpose is to investigate the stability of cracked cantilever T-beams subjected to axial force. In addition, an analysis of the natural frequency of a cracked beams as crack position, crack depth and tip mass is investigated. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion is derived by the energy expressions using extended Hamilton's Principle. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. The results of this study will contribute to the safety test and stability estimation of structures of a cracked T-beams subjected to axial force.

Recently, fiber optic hydrophone is a subject which has attracted as a underwater acoustic sensor. In this paper, a length of optical fiber is bonded to an end-capped hollow cylinder of some elastic material, e. g. aluminum and glass-pyres. The normalized sensitivity is derived according to the direction of polarization. Derived sensitivity equations are simulated for two different mandrel materials. The results are also compared to the McMahon's results which calculated for an average Pockel coefficient. Based on the numerical simulation normalized sensitivity is propotional to the inner to outer diameter ratio.

The paper discussed the effect of a tip mass on the stability of pipes on elastic foundations. Governing equations of motion are derived by extended Hamilton's principle, and the numerical scheme using finite element method is applied to obtain the discretized equations. With or without internal damping, the critical flow velocities of the pipes are investigated according to the variation of elastic foundation parameters and tip mass ratios. Also. the relationship between the eigenvalue branches and the corresponding flutter modes of the cantilevered pipes with a tip mass on the elastic foundations is fully investigated.
