Active Vibration

In this paper, epoxy matrix composite beams with embedded TiNi (SMA: Shape Memory Alloy) fiber are applied to enhance the strength and fracture toughness of the machinery components. It is also well known that SMA shows the remarkable changes of stiffness and damping ratio between martensite at lower temperature and austenite at high temperature. A shape recovery force is associated with inverse phase transformation of SMA. The effects of heating with current and pre-strain in TiNi fiber of SMA on vibration characteristics are experimentally investigated. The active vibration control is achieved by controlling the current and pre-strain.

Active Vibration

The overall performance of large aerospace vehicles is determined to a great extent by the wings structure of aircrafts. In order to prevent wings vibration due to external interference, schemes of combined fuzzy-PID and fuzzy adapt PID controllers are proposed based on flexible beam structure. The MATLAB simulation model demonstrates that the proposed controllers not only has good dynamic characteristics, but also reduce the vibration effect greatly caused by external disturbance, which lay the foundation for the active vibration control of aircraft wings.

Abstract Piezoceramic, electrostrictive, and magnetostrictive materials are being increasingly applied in active vibration control and are being investigated for other motion control and damage mitigation applications. Typically, motion ranges required in active vibration control are of the order of a few microns. On the other hand, many mechanical and electromechanical motion control applications require the point of application of the load to move through at least a few millimeters. In this research, a smart ceramic-elastic composite actuator is invented for such motion control applications. The work presented in this paper includes the concept, its illustration, development of a design geometry based on this concept, and its finite element analysis and results. It will be shown that by a proper synthesis of smart structure, a class of such actuators can be successfully designed and realized in practice.
