This paper provides a review of active control strategies used to isolate high-precisionmachines (e.g. telescopes, particle colliders, interferometers, lithography machines or atomic force microscopes) from external disturbances. The objective of this review is to provide tools to develop the best strategy for a given application. Firstly, the main strategies are presented and compared, using single degree of freedom models. Secondly, the case of huge structures constituted of a large number of elements, like particle colliders or segmented telescopes, is considered.

Active vibration control uses sensing and power actuators to attenuate vibrational energy due to external disturbances. Many of these systems are retrofitted into already existing passive ones. As a result allowable relative motions are prescribed, and this influences the performance of the active system. This paper exposes these limitations and shows realistic expectations for two excellent control strategies.

This paper investigates an active anti-vibration system, and the isolation of low-frequency vibration is studied. A model reference control of the anti-vibration system with a sky-hook damper and impedance control is analyzed. An illustrated example of a single-degree-of-freedom anti-vibration system driven by a tubular linear servomotor is given to verify the performance of the proposed control design. Experimental results are given to show that the peak resonance value of 0dB within a frequency of 10Hz can be achieved successively.

This paper considers the vibration control of a single degree of freedom mass-spring-damper system when subjected to an arbitrary, unmeasurable disturbance. The idea of a disturbance observer is introduced and it is shown how an estimate of the excitation can be derived and used to generate a control, which reduces the vibration. This control is shown to be robust with respect to the parameters describing the behavior of the system. Experimental results are presented which show the efficacy of the method when the system is excited by periodic, random, and impact forces. Comments are made on the application of the method.

The conventional single-degree-of-freedom approach to isolator design dealt with in most undergraduate curricula, is not always adequate for the design of practical isolator systems. In this article, an optimization approach to the design problem is presented and the viability of the approach demonstrated. It is, however, also shown that multiple local minima may exist and that due care should be exercised in the application of the method.

Abstract Highly dynamic machining forces can cause excessive and unstable vibrations when industrial robots are used to perform high-force operations such as milling and drilling. Implementing appropriate optimization and control strategies to suppress vibrations during robotic machining requires accurate models of the robot’s vibration response to the machining forces generated at its tool center point (TCP). The existing models of machining vibrations assume the linearity of the structural dynamics of the robotic arm. This assumption, considering the inherent nonlinearities in the robot’s revolute joints, may cause considerable inaccuracies in predicting the extent and stability of vibrations during the process. In this article, a single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system with the nonlinear restoring force is used to model the vibration response of a KUKA machining robot at its TCP (i.e., machining tool-tip). The experimental identification of the restoring force shows that its damping and stiffness components can be approximated using cubic models. Subsequently, the higher-order frequency response functions (HFRFs) of the SDOF system are estimated experimentally, and the parameters of the SDOF system are identified by curve fitting the resulting HFRFs. The accuracy of the presented SDOF modeling approach in capturing the nonlinearity of the TCP vibration response is verified experimentally. It is shown that the identified models accurately predict the variation of the receptance of the nonlinear system in the vicinity of well-separated peaks, but nonlinear coupling around closely spaced peaks may cause inaccuracies in the prediction of system dynamics.
