Abstract In this paper, the physical meaning of transfer function zeros for collocated control in a general flexible structure system is discussed. For a flexible structure system, we propose the “Zero Dynamic Theorem”. The theorem states that in a flexible structure system, the flexible structure can be a circulatory system (non-sysmetric stiffness matrix) with viscous and gyroscopic damping (non-symmetric damping matrix), if the sensor output (generalized displacement) and the actuator input (generalized force) are “dual type” and the transfer function is strict proper and coprime (no pole/zero cancellation); then, the transfer function zeros are the natural frequencies of constrained structure. Furthermore, with this theorem, the interlacing pole/zero property for the gyroscopic systems is presented.

Physical interpretation of the transfer function zeros of simple control systems with mechanical flexibilities is presented. It is shown that for discrete spring-mass systems and elastic beams, the poles are the resonant frequencies of the flexible structure and the complex conjugate zeros are the resonant frequencies of a substructure constrained by the sensor and actuator. It is also shown that when the flexible control systems become nonminimum phase, the real zeros are the results of nonpropagation of energy within the substructure.

In his famous treatise The Theory of Sound, Rayleigh enunciated an eigenvalue inclusion principle for the discrete, self-adjoint vibrating system under a constraint. According to this principle, the natural frequencies of the discrete system without and with the constraint are alternately located along the positive real axis. Although it is commonly believed that the same rule also applied for distributed vibrating systems, no proof has been given for the distributed gyroscopic system. This paper presents several eigenvalue inclusion principles for a class of distributed gyroscopic systems under pointwise constraints. A transfer function formulation is proposed to describe the constrained system. Five types of nondissipative constraints and their effects on the system natural frequencies are studied. It is shown that the transfer function formulation is a systematic and convenient way to handle constraint problems for the distributed gyroscopic system.

In this paper we investigate generic properties of structural modeling pertinent to structural control, with emphasis on noncollocated systems. Analysis is performed on a representative example of a pinned-free Euler-Bernoulli beam with distributed sensors. Analysis in the wave number plane highlights the crucial qualitative characteristics common to all structural systems. High sensitivity of the transfer function zeros to errors in model parameters and sensor locations is demonstrated. The existence of finite right half plane zeros in noncollocated systems, along with this high sensitivity, further complicates noncollocated controls design. A numerical method for accurate computation of the transfer function zeros is proposed. Wiener-Hopf factorization is used to compute equivalent delay time, which is important in controls design.
