Vibrations in the aircraft assembly building will affect the precision of the robotic drilling system. A variable stiffness and damping semiactive vibration control mechanism with quasi-zero stiffness characteristics is developed. The quasi-zero stiffness of the mechanism is realized by the parallel connection of four vertically arranged bearing springs and two symmetrical horizontally arranged negative stiffness elements. Firstly, the quasi-zero stiffness parameters of the mechanism at the static equilibrium position are obtained through analysis. Secondly, the harmonic balance method is used to deal with the differential equations of motion. The effects of every parameter on the displacement transmissibility are analyzed, and the variable parameter control strategies are proposed. Finally, the system responses of the passive and semiactive vibration isolation mechanisms to the segmental variable frequency excitations are compared through virtual prototype experiments. The results show that the frequency range of vibration isolation is widened, and the stability of the vibration control system is effectively improved without resonance through the semiactive vibration control method. It is of innovative significance for ambient vibration control in robotic drilling systems.

The weak dynamic stiffness of thin plate is one of the important factors that limit the use of thin plate. Improving the dynamic stiffness of thin plate is one of the effective methods for the vibration control of thin plate. In this paper, the influence of pre-stress on the vibration characteristics of thin plate is studied. A vibration control method of thin plate based on pre-stress is proposed. The vibration differential equation of quadrate thin plate under pre-stressing is established. Using the Galerkin principle, the natural frequencies corresponding to the shape functions of the quadrate thin plates under pre-stressing in different distribution forms are obtained. By comparison, it is found that pre-stressing on the thin plate can change the dynamic stiffness of thin plate. In particular, tensile stress can increase the dynamic stiffness of thin plate while compressive stress can reduce the dynamic stiffness of the thin plate. The greater the pre-stress, the more obvious the effect. In the end, the requirements of the pre-stress distribution which can improve the dynamic stiffness of thin plate effectively are derived.

Abstract This paper presents a numerical study in which active and hybrid vibration confinement is compared with a conventional active vibration control method. Vibration confinement is a vibration control technique that is based on reshaping structural modes to produce “quiet areas” in a structure as opposed to adding damping as in conventional active or passive methods. In this paper, active and hybrid confinement is achieved in a flexible beam with two pairs of piezoelectric actuators and sensors and with two vibration absorbers. For comparison purposes, active damping is achieved also with two pairs of piezoelectric actuators and sensors using direct velocity feedback. The results show that both approaches are effective in controlling vibrations in the targeted area of the beam, with direct velocity feedback being slightly more cost effective in terms of required power. When combined with passive confinement, however, each method is improved with a significant reduction in required power.

Abstract Most of the available vibration control methods for flexible structures are based on the modal control method, which, however, sometimes meets with problems. For examples, the problem of spillover has not been solved adequately. And, for flexible large space structures with closely spaced natural frequencies, it is very difficult to use modal method to treat vibration control problems because the modes corresponding to closely spaced and repeated frequencies can not be computed accurately. In recent years, the method of structural wave control has been developed, but it has not been studied sufficiently. The object of this paper is an attempt to solve some of the existing problems raised due to the application of the modal control method. A wave control method — the method of successive decrease is set up at first, which is aimed at one harmonic wave. Then, a new design method in wave control is proposed, based on the above method. The problem of control spillover is analyzed and the concept of harmonic wave filter is introduced. As an example, the problem of the control of structures with closely spaced natural frequencies is treated by both the method of modal control and the method of successive decrease. The numerical results show that the method of successive decrease is more effective than the method of modal control. It proves that the method of successive decrease and the concept of harmonic wave filter is promising in solving the problems of structural control.

Cable Stayed Bridges

As the construction of long-span bridges such as cable-stayed bridges increases worldwide, maintaining bridge serviceability and operability has become an important issue in civil engineering. The stay cable is a principal component of cable-stayed bridges and is generally lightly damped and intrinsically vulnerable to vibration. Excessive vibrations in stay cables can potentially cause long-term fatigue accumulation and serviceability issues. Previous studies have mainly focused on the mitigation of cable vibration within an acceptable operational level, while little attention has been paid to the quantitative assessment of serviceability enhancement provided by vibration control. This study accordingly proposed and evaluated a serviceability assessment method for stay cables equipped with vibration control. Cable serviceability failure was defined according to the range of acceptable cable responses provided in most bridge design codes. The cable serviceability failure probability was then determined by means of the first-passage problem using VanMarcke’s approximation. The proposed approach effectively allows the probability of serviceability failure to be calculated depending on the properties of any installed vibration control method. To demonstrate the proposed method, the stay cables of the Second Jindo Bridge in South Korea were evaluated and the analysis results accurately reflected cable behavior during a known wind event and show that the appropriate selection of vibration control method and properties can effectively reduce the probability of serviceability failure.
