Active suppression of vibration modes with piezoelectic patches: Modeling, Simulation and Experimentation”. In Proceedings of the IASTED International Conference, APPLIED SIMULATION AND MODELLING.http://repository.elizadeuniversity.edu.ng/handle/20.500.12398/540Active vibration control of the first three modes of a vibrating cantilever beam using piezoelectric patches is examined in this paper. A model based on Euler-Bemoulli beam equation is adopted and extended to the case of three bonded piezoelectric patches which act as sensor. actuator and exciter respectively. The sensor and the actualor are collocated to achieve a minimum phase. A compensated inverse PID controller has been designed and developed to damp these modes. Simulation studies are caried using MATLAB. Individual controller has been designed for each mode and then combined in parallel to damp any of the three modes. Finally, the simulation results are compared and verified experimentally and the real-tinie implementation is carried out with xPC talget toolbox in MATLAB.enPiezoelectric materialsActive vibration controlReal-time implementationInverse-PlD controllerxPCMATLABArticle
