This paper presents the theoretical procedure of the active vibration control of a simply supported

composite beam with integrated piezoelectric layers. Two piezoelectric layers, one acting as

a sensor and the other as an actuator...

characteristics and undoubtedly the most important reasons of the fast extension of the novel applications of these smart composites. In this paper, the application of IPMC materials in active vibration control of continuous systems has been investigated. A two...

The present work demonstrates the successful application of a simple active vibration

control procedure based on structural dynamics. Based on theories of mathematical and structural

dynamics, the appropriate ...

such as beam structures have wide application in aerospace engineering, vibration control seems essential, so in this article, we report the derivation of an analytical solution to the H  optimization problems of DVA

applied to suppress vibrations...

The tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) is a passive control device that consists of tube like con-tainers filled with liquid, preferably water. The damping in a liquid column is amplitude-dependent and consequently nonlinear. ...

Investigations in recent years show that uncomfortable agricultural vehicles seat can be a threat for the health of their operators. In fact, the transmitted vibration to the driver, caused by the motion of vehicle and ...

– In the present study, two passive and a semi-active suspension systems with squeeze-mode electro-rheological (ER) dampers are presented to reduce the transmitted forces to the driver. Since the rigid connection of the ...
