Active Control of Nonlinear Dynamic Response of Space-frames Using Piezo-electric Actuators

چکیده
A scheme for active control of nonlinear vibration of space-structures, wherein each member is modeled as a beam-column, is presented. The expressions for shear stresses transmitted to the structural member by the distributed segmented piezo-electric actuators, which are bonded on the surfaces of the member, are derived in the general case in which the structural member is subjected to moments, transverse shear forces and an axial force. Based on the weak form of the governing equations, and a complementary energy approach based on assumed stress fields, the viability of active control of nonlinear dynamic response of lattice-type space structures, using piezo actuators, is studied. Four examples are given to demonstrate the feasibility of the approaches presented in this paper.

The smart structure modeling and control design is carried out using MATLAB software in state space form. Subs...
متن کاملNonlinear Analysis of a Flexible Beam Actuated by a Couple of Active SMA Wire Actuators
There are two different ways of using SMA wires as actuators for shape control of flexible structures; which can be either embedded within the composite laminate or externally attached to the structure. Since the actuator can be placed at different offset distances from the beam, external actuators produce more bending moment and, consequently, considerable shape changes with the same magnitude...

Piezoelectric actuators and sensors have been broadly used for design of smart structures over the last two decades. Different theoretical assumptions have been considered in order to model these structures by the researchers. In this paper, an enhanced piezolaminated sandwich beam finite element model is presented. The facing layers follow the Euler-Bernoulli assumption while the core layers a...
متن کاملThe Use of Piezo-ceramics as Distributed Actuators in Flexible Space Structures
Distributed segmented piezo-electric actuators bonded to an elastic substructure and embedded inside a laminated composite material are modeled. Static mechanical models for various actuator geometries exciting both extension and flexure in the substructural material are developed. The flexural static models for both surface bonded and embedded cases are then integrated into a simple dynamic mo...
