In this paper, vibration control performance of piezostack active engine mount system for unmanned aero vehicle (UAV) is evaluated via computer simulation. As a first step, the dynamic model of engine mount system which is supported at three points is derived. In the configuration of engine mount system, the inertia type of piezostack based active mount is installed for active vibration control. Then, the vibration level of UAV engine is measured. To attenuate the vibration which is transmitted from engine, a sliding mode controller which is robust to uncertain parameters is designed. Vibration control performances of active engine mount system are evaluated at each mount and center of gravity. Effective Control results are presented in both time and frequency domains.

Abstract This paper deals with active vibration control of two identical flexible structures arranged in parallel. One of the authors had presented a vibration control mechanism so that two or more structures are connected via non-contact actuators in which one structure is utilized as a reaction wall for another structure’s control mutually. However, in such a mechanism, the control performance reduces as the natural frequencies of structures become closer. In this report, authors present a modified mechanism in which actuators are connected to the structures with long arms so that the direction of vibration in a mode differs on each structure. In this way, the reaction force from the actuator on structure is introduced to another structure for dissipative force even if the properties of structures are identical. Computer simulation and control experiment are carried out and the effectiveness of presented mechanism is confirmed.

Active control of low frequency vibration and sound radiation from a rib stiffened plate has great practical significance as this structure is widely applied in engineering, such as aircraft or ship fuselage shells. This paper presents an investigation on the performance of active vibration control of the rib stiffened plate by using decentralized velocity feedback controllers with inertial actuators. A simple modeling approach in frequency domain is proposed in this research to calculate the control performance. The theoretical model of vibrating response of the ribbed plate and the velocity feedback controllers is first established. Then, as an important part, the influences of the control gain and the number of the decentralized unit on the control performance are investigated. Results obtained demonstrate that—similar to that of the unribbed plate case—appropriately choosing the number of the unit and their feedback gains can achieve good control results. Too many units or very high feedback gains will not bring further noise reduction.

Though with its big restoring force and large deformation characteristic, shape memory alloy (SMA) is commonly used in the research of active vibration control for smart structure, the presence of its thermal hysteresis often leads to bad control performance. A vibration control method based on alternate multichannel driving SMA is proposed to improve the SMA based smart structural vibration control performance by reducing the effect of thermal hysteresis of SMA. The technical methods, the design of the experimental structure, the construction of the experimental platform is illustrated, with the principle and operating process of the experiment and experimental results described. By embedding the SMA driving elements into the epoxy substrate and mounted epoxy plate into the framework of the aircraft prototype, experimental analysis and verification is done. The experimental results show that alternate multichannel driving of SMA for vibration suppression of smart structure is feasible, and the performance is improved to a certain extent.
