This paper presents the design and performance evaluation of an adaptive active control mechanism for vibration suppression inflexible beam structures. A cantilever beam system in transverse vibration is considered. First-order central finite difference methods are used to study the behaviour of the beam and develop a suitable test and verification platform. An active vibration control algorithm is developed within an adaptive control framework for broadband cancellation of vibration along the beam using a single-input multi-output (SIMO) control structure. The algorithm is implemented on a digital processor incorporating a digital signal processing (DSP) and transputer system. Simulation results verifying the performance of the algorithm in the suppression of vibration along the beam, using single-input single-output and SIMO control structures, are presented and discussed.
