Active vibration control of a smart cantilever beam on general purpose operating system
(2013) Parameswaran, A.P.; Pai, A.B.; Tripathi, P.K.; Gangadharan, K.V.
All mechanical systems suffer from undesirable vibrations during their operations. Their occurrence is uncontrollable as it depends on various factors. However, for efficient operation of the system, these vibrations have to be controlled within the specified limits. Light weight, rapid and multi-mode control of the vibrating structure is possible by the use of piezoelectric sensors and actuators and feedback control algorithms. In this paper, direct output feedback based active vibration control has been implemented on a cantilever beam using Lead Zirconate-Titanate (PZT) sensors and actuators. Three PZT patches were used, one as the sensor, one as the exciter providing the forced vibrations and the third acting as the actuator that provides an equal but opposite phase vibration/force signal to that of sensed so as to damp out the vibrations. The designed algorithm is implemented on Lab VIEW 2010 on Windows 7 Platform. 2013, DESIDOC.

FPGA based vibration control of a mass varying two-degree of freedom system
(2011) Singh, M.P.; Tripathi, P.K.; Gangadharan, K.V.
Controlling of vibration in any system is very challenging problem. In the present work design, fabrication and testing of a variable mass 2-DoF system was presented. The system has been designed to be used as tool to demonstrate the capability of mass variable tuned vibration damper for wide frequency application. All valves and pumps were controlled by a cRIO with onboard FPGA. cRIO with FPGA enable the designer to implement different control algorithms that can be used for real time wide spectrum vibration control. LabVIEW with real time suite was used for algorithm implementation and device control. To avoid sloshing in tanks at different water height a floating roof was used. Its effect on damping was also studied.
