A laminated composite beam, representative of a flexible beam, containing a layer of magnetostrictive material, is considered as a distributed parameter system and its dynamic behavior has been investigated. The magnetostrictive layer is used to induce actuation forces to control vibration in the be

โฆ Synopsis
This paper describes a theoretical and experimental development of a laminated spatially distributed piezoelectric torsional vibration actuator for a clamped-free cantilever beam. The strain energy transferred from a piezoelectric film actuator to a substructure is derived as a function of actuator strain only and is then used to calculate the induced strain in a substructure loaded in uniaxial extension/compression, bending and torsion. This transferred energy can be maximized by optimizing the actuator/structure dimensions and material properties. An experimental cantilever beam was constructed to examine the first mode decay in torsion under the influence of the actuators. The theoretical and experimental decay histories of the first torsion mode decay indicate a reduction in decay time for the controlled beam of greater than 10 times that of the uncontrolled beam.

This paper addresses the controllability aspect in vibration control of beam structures with piezoelectric actuators. First, we model the beam structure with piezoelectric actuators and establish the corresponding state-coupled equation. Based on the state equation, we propose a controllability inde
