Stabilization of Frame Structure – Controller Design, Implementation and Experiments

Description

In this contribution the stabilization of the experimental setup of a vertical frame structure, being subject to horizontal oscillations, is discussed. The structure consists of 3 storeys connected with flexible links. The actuators is an active mass driver unit (AMD) mounted on the top level storey. The measurements accessible for control are the acceleration of each storey and the position of the mass in the AMD unit. The links are modelled as Bernoulli-Euler beams. Using the Lagrange formalism and an appropriate Ritz ansatz for the deflections of the beams, a finite dimensional mathematical model of the entire frame structure is derived.
