چکیده

This paper presents an investigation of active damping of the vertical and horizontal transverse modes of a rigidly-terminated vibrating string. A state-space model that emulates the behavior of the string is introduced, and we explain the theory behind band pass filter control and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control as applied to a vibrating string. After describing the characteristics of various actuators and sensors, we motivate the choice of collocated electromagnetic actuators and a multiaxis piezoelectric bridge sensor. Integral control is shown experimentally to be capable of damping the string independently of the fundamental frequency. Finally, we consider the difference between damping the energy in only one transverse axis, versus simultaneously damping the energy in both the vertical and horizontal transverse axes.

Asymptotic Approximations of the Solution for a Traveling String under Boundary Damping

Transversal vibrations of an axially moving string under boundary damping are investigated. Mathematically, it represents a homogenous linear partial differential equation subject to nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. The string is moving with a relatively (low) constant speed, which is considered to be positive.  The string is kept fixed at the first end, while the other end is tied with the ...

Semi-Active Pulse-Switching SSDC Vibration Suppression using Magnetostrictive Materials

One of the best vibration control methods using smart actuators are semi-active approaches which are as strong as active methods and need no external energy supply such as passive ones. Compared with piezoelectric-based, magnetostrictive-based control methods have higher coupling efficiency, higher Curie temperature, higher flexibility to be integrated with curved structures and no depolarizati...

Reachability of Nonnegative Equilibrium States for the Semilinear Vibrating String by Varying Its Axial Load and the Gain of Damping

Abstract. We show that the set of nonnegative equilibrium-like states, namely, like (yd, 0) of the semilinear vibrating string that can be reached from any non-zero initial state (y0, y1) ∈ H 0 (0, 1) × L(0, 1), by varying its axial load and the gain of damping, is dense in the “nonnegative” part of the subspace L(0, 1) × {0} of L(0, 1) × H−1(0, 1). Our main results deal with nonlinear terms wh...

On Stability and Stabilization of Elastic Systems by Time-variant Feedback

We study a class of elastic systems described by a (hyperbolic) partial differential equation. Our working example is the equation of a vibrating string subject to linear disturbance. The main goal is to establish conditions for stabilization and asymptotic stabilization by applying a fast oscillating control to the string. In the first situation studied we assume that system is subject to a da...

Pressure Dependence of Damping Constant of Dislocation Motion in Crystals

Ultrasonic attenuation in Harshaw LiF and NaCl crystals in deformed and y-irradiated states has been measured at 5 a 100 MHz under hydrostatic pressure up to 3500 kg/cmz. By analyzing the data on the basis of the vibrating string model of dislocation, the pressure derivative of damping constant for dislocation motion was determined. The results were compared with theories of dislocation damping...
