In this paper, the new robust torsional vibration suppression control scheme is proposed for the two mass system. A reduced order state feedback controller where the motor speed and the observed torsional torque are fed back and the PI controller are proposed as the torsional vibration suppression controller. Using the estimated mechanical parameters by off-line RLS(Recursive Least Square) algorithms, the speed controller for torsional vibration suppression is designed and its gains are determined using the Kharitonov robust control theory. The Kharitonov robust control theory can obtain the robust stability with a specified stability margin and a damping limit and the good performance of vibration suppression although if the parameters are varied within some specified limit. The effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed schemes are verified with the simulation and the experimental results on the fully-digitalized 5.5kW two mass system.

The response characteristics and suppression of flow-induced vibrations of rectangular prisms with various width-to-depth ratios were experimentally investigated. The prisms were rigid and elastically mounted at both ends to enable constrained torsional vibrations only. The present study focused on torsional vibrations, one of the three types of flow-induced vibrations generated in a rectangular prism. First, the response characteristics of torsional vibrations generated in rectangular prisms were investigated by free-vibration tests. It was found that the response characteristics of torsional vibrations generated in rectangular prisms could be classified into six patterns depending on the width-to-depth ratio. Next, the response characteristics of torsional vibrations observed in the free-vibration tests were reproduced by forced-vibration tests, and the mechanisms by which the three types of flow-induced vibrations, low-speed torsional flutter, vortex excitation and high-speed torsional flutter, are generated in the rectangular prisms were elucidated on the basis of characteristics of fluid forces and visualized flow patterns. Experiments were also carried out to establish an effective method for suppressing flow-induced vibrations generated in the rectangular prisms, and it was found that low-speed torsional flutter and high-speed torsional flutter could be suppressed by placing a small normal plate upstream of the prism, which results in suppression of the alternating rolling-up of the shear layers separating from the leading edges of the prism. It was also found that vortex excitation could be suppressed by placing a splitter plate downstream of the prism, which results in suppression of the generation of wake vortices.

A wind generator system model includes wind model, rotor dynamics, synchronous generator, power converter, distribution line and infinite bus. This paper investigates the low-Voltage Ride-Through capability of PMSG wind turbine in a variable speed. The drive train of a wind turbine on 2-mass modeling can observe the shaft torsional vibration when the low-voltage occur. To reduce the torsional vibration when the low-voltage occur, this paper designs suppression control algorithm of the torsional vibration and implements simulation. The simulation based on MATLAB/SIMULINK has validated at the transient state of the PMSG and an experiment using 3kW simulator has validated the LVRT control.

In the industrial motor drive systems, a shaft torsional vibration is often generated when a motor and a load are connected with a flexible shaft. This paper treats the vibration suppression control of this system. The resonance ratio control is proposed for suppressing the torsional vibration. In this paper, first, the optimal resonance ratio is sellected and the controller to the resonance ratio controlled outward plant is designed based on $H_{\infty}$ control theory. Secondly, the two-degree-of-freedom controller, which includes the above $H_{\infty}$ controller, is designed in order to improve the tracking characteristics for the commanded speed. The control performances are examined by the computer simulations and it is clarified that the proposed speed control system is useful for two-mass system.

In the industrial motor drive system, a shaft torsional vibration is often generated when a motor and a load are connected with a flexible shaft. This paper treats the vibration suppression control of such a system. Recently, there are new methods which estimate unknown state variables by using a reduced order observer and feedback these state variables by using a pole placement design method. But there is a trade-off between the fast command following property and the attenuation of disturbances and vibrations in these design methods. In this paper, the vibration suppression control of a two-mass system using a reference model is proposed. Because of using a reference model, the proposed control satisfy the fast command following property and the attenuation of disturbances and vibrations. Control parameter can be changed to maintain high system performance in control using a reference model. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed state feedback control using a reference model, and this controller is compared with the state feedback controller.

This paper deals with the comparison study of speed controller for torsional vibration suppression of 2-mass motor drive system. Firstly conventional methods suggested were classified systematically and the features of each method were also compared. Especially the speed controller based on Kalman filter and LQ state feedback was proposed and the response characteristics of it were compared with those of some other methods. Through various computer simulations and the experiments of real 22[KW] field oriented controlled AC motor drive system having 2-mas mechanical system, it was confirmed that the characteristic of proposed speed controller using Kalman filter and LQ is the best among them.
