Abstract

This article deals with the simulation of the active vibration control of a cantilever beam. For these purposes, a lumped parameter model has been developed and the simplest controller has been designed to ensure the structural stability of the control loop. The controller is of a proportional velocity feedback type. The control loop can also be stable in the case of a very small inherent damping of the cantilever beam. The lumped-parameter model is based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The developed tools can be used to simulate the collocated and non-collocated active vibration control. Since this article is intended to study the behaviour of a non-collocated control system of the transducer is sensing the vibration of the free end of the beam, while the actuator force acts near the fixed end.
