In this note a method of designing optimal vibration control based on Haar functions to control of bounce and pitch vibrations in engine-body vibration structure is presented. Utilizing properties of Haar functions, a computational method to find optimal vibration control for the engine-body system is developed. It is shown that the optimal state trajectories and optimal vibration control are calculated approximately by solving only algebraic equations instead of solving the Riccati differential equation. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique.

For vibration control of civil structures, especially large civil structures, one of the important issues is how to place a minimal number of actuators and sensors at their respective optimal locations to achieve the predetermined control performance. In this paper, a methodology is presented for the determination of the minimal number and optimal location of actuators and sensors for vibration control of building structures under earthquake excitation. In the proposed methodology, the number and location of the actuators are first determined in terms of the sequence of performance index increments and the predetermined control performance. A multi-scale response reconstruction method is then extended to the controlled building structure for the determination of the minimal number and optimal placement of sensors with the objective that the reconstructed structural responses can be used as feedbacks for the vibration control while the predetermined control performance can be maintained. The feasibility and accuracy of the proposed methodology are finally investigated numerically through a 20-story shear building structure under the El-Centro ground excitation and the Kobe ground excitation. The numerical results show that with the limited number of sensors and actuators at their optimal locations, the predetermined control performance of the building structure can be achieved.

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.

본 논문에서는 구조적으로 유연한 특성을 갖는 교량 구조물을 대상으로 외력에 의해 발생되는 진동을 실시간으로 제어하고자 준능동형 실시간 피드백 진동제어시스템을 구성하고, 이를 실험적으로 평가하였다. 여기서 진동제어를 위한 대상 교량 구조물은 서해대교를 약 1/200 크기로 규모화 하여 설계/제작한 모형 교량 구조물을 사용하였고, 실험실 여건을 고려해 규모화 된 El-centro 지진파형으로 구조물을 가진하였다. 또한, 교량 상판 중앙지점에는 전자석이 채용된 전단형 MR 댐퍼를 수직방향으로 설치하여 발생된 진동을 제어하도록 하였고, 동시에 변위계 및 가속도계를 설치하여 구조물의 응답(변위, 가속도)을 획득하였다. 이때 진동제어의 실험은 크게 비-제어, 수동 on/off 제어, Lyapunov 안정론 기반 제어 그리고, Clipped-optimal 제어조건으로 구분하여 실시간 피드백 진동제어실험을 수행하였고, 이때 진동제어의 효과는 상판 중앙지점에 대하여 각 실험방법 별 절대최대변위와 절대최대가속도 그리고, 인가전원의 소모량 등을 성능지수를 이용해 정량적으로 평가하였다. 진동제어실험의 결과로부터, Lyapunov 제어 및 Clipped-optimal 제어방법 모두 구조물의 발생 변위 및 가속도를 효과적으로 감소시켰으며, 특히 진동제어 시 요구되는 외부 인가전원의 소비를 크게 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 최종적으로, 본 논문에서 구성한 준능동형 실시간 피드백 진동제어시스템은 교량 구조물에 발생된 진동을 제어 관리하기 위한 적극 효율적인 방법으로 활용될 가능성이 있음을 확인하였다.

To control the stochastic vibration of a vibration-sensitive instrument supported on a beam, the beam is designed as a sandwich structure with magneto-rheological visco-elastomer (MRVE) core. The MRVE has dynamic properties such as stiffness and damping adjustable by applied magnetic fields. To achieve better vibration control effectiveness, the optimal bounded parametric control for the MRVE sandwich beam with supported mass under stochastic and deterministic support motion excitations is proposed, and the stochastic and shock vibration suppression capability of the optimally controlled beam with multi-mode coupling is studied. The dynamic behavior of MRVE core is described by the visco-elastic Kelvin-Voigt model with a controllable parameter dependent on applied magnetic fields, and the parameter is considered as an active bounded control. The partial differential equations for horizontal and vertical coupling motions of the sandwich beam are obtained and converted into the multi-mode coupling vibration equations with the bounded nonlinear parametric control according to the Galerkin method. The vibration equations and corresponding performance index construct the optimal bounded parametric control problem. Then the dynamical programming equation for the control problem is derived based on the dynamical programming principle. The optimal bounded parametric control law is obtained by solving the programming equation with the bounded control constraint. The controlled vibration responses of the MRVE sandwich beam under stochastic and shock excitations are obtained by substituting the optimal bounded control into the vibration equations and solving them. The further remarkable vibration suppression capability of the optimal bounded control compared with the passive control and the influence of the control parameters on the stochastic vibration suppression effectiveness are illustrated with numerical results. The proposed optimal bounded parametric control strategy is applicable to smart visco-elastic composite structures under deterministic and stochastic excitations for improving vibration control effectiveness.
