RISA Comparative Study and Analysis of Semi-Active Vibration-Control Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Semi-active (SA) vibration-control systems are those which otherwise passively generated damping or spring forces are modulated according to a parameter tuning policy with only a small amount of ...
A Polynomial-Based Linear Mapping Strategy for Feedforward Compensation of Hysteresis in Piezoelectric Actuators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A set of memory-based properties is employed in this paper for modeling multiple-path hysteresis response of piezoelectric actuators. These properties, namely, targeting turning points, curve ...
Design and Dynamic Analysis of an Adjustable Inertia Absorber for Semiactive Structural Vibration Attenuation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new class of adaptive tuned vibration absorber, a variable effective inertia absorber, is presented to impart optimum vibration absorption. The tuning scheme has two facets: spectral analysis of the excitation and a ...
