In this paper, an active vibration suppression of a smart beam using self-sensing piezoelectric actuator is presented. The smart beam is composed of a cantilever aluminium beam with four surface-bonded piezoelectric patches symmetrically located both side of the beam. Piezoelectric materials can transform mechanical deformation to electric signal and vice versa. This property of piezoelectric materials enables them to be used as an actuator and a sensor. In self-sensing actuator configuration, the piezoelectric material can be used as an actuator and a sensor simultaneously. A special bridge circuit is used to decompose actuator and sensor signal. This bridge circuit includes the electrical model of the piezoelectric material and in general piezoelectric material is modelled as a voltage source with a series capacitor or a charge source with a parallel capacitor. In our study, this bridge circuit is designed and built for voltage source model of piezoelectric material. Following this, frequency response of the system is obtained by using piezoelectric patches as a self-sensing actuator. Then, analytical system model is obtained from the measured frequency response and robust controller is designed for the active vibration control of smart beam. Finally, both free and the first resonance frequency forced vibration results of open and closed loop are presented.

Optimal Control of a Smart Beam by Using a Luenberger Observer Onat, Cem; Şahin, Melin; Yaman, Yavuz (2013-06-26) This paper presents the design of an optimal vibration control mechanism, namely an LQR controller, with a Luenberger observer for a smart beam having surface bonded piezoelectric sensors and actuators. The approach intends to suppress the vibrations of the first flexural resonance of the smart beam. The smart beam studied was a cantilever aluminium beam with eight surface bonded Lead-Zirconate-Titanate (PZT) patches in bimorph configuration. The smart beam was excited at its first resonance frequency (appr...
Active neuro-adaptive vibration suppression of a smart beam Akin, Onur; Şahin, Melin (2017-12-01) In this research, an active vibration suppression of a smart beam having piezoelectric sensor and actuators is investigated by designing separate controllers comprising a linear quadratic regulator and a neural network. Firstly, design of a smart beam which consists of a cantilever aluminum beam with surface bonded piezoelectric patches and a designed mechanism having a micro servomotor with a mass attached arm for obtaining variations in the frequency response function are presented.

Active neuro-adaptive control of a smart beam having uncertainties in structural dynamics Akın, Onur; Şahin, Melin; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015) In this thesis, an active vibration suppression of a smart beam having piezoelectric sensor and actuators is investigated by designing separate controllers comprising a linear quadratic regulator and a neural network. At first, design of a smart beam which consists of a cantilever aluminum beam with surface bonded piezoelectric patches and a designed mechanism having a micro servomotor with a mass attached arm for obtaining variations in the frequency response function are presented.

Active Vibration Suppression of a Smart Beam by Using an LQG Control Algorithm Onat, Cem; Şahin, Melin; Yaman, Yavuz (2011-06-22) The aim of this study was to design and experimentally apply a Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller for the active vibration suppression of a smart beam. The smart beam was a cantilever aluminum beam with eight symmetrically located surface-bonded PZT (Lead-Zirconate-Titanate) patches which were utilized both as sensor or actuator depending on their location. A group of PZT patches closed to the root of the beam was used as actuators in the bimorph configuration and a single patch was nominated as a s...
Active vibration suppression of a flexible beam via sliding mode and H ∞ control Itik, Mehmet; Salamci, Metin U.; Demet Ulker, F.; Yaman, Yavuz (2005-12-01) n this study, sliding mode and H. control techniques are applied to a flexible beam in order to suppress some of the vibration modes. The beam is a clamped-free flexible structure having piezoelectric (PZT) patches as actuators and a laser displacement sensor for measuring the tip point deflection. The beam is modeled in two different ways for each control algorithm. To implement sliding mode control (SMC), Euler-Bernoulli beam model is used and a finite dimensional LTI model is formed by using assumed mode...
