Mechatronic Control of Distributed Noise and Vibration [Hardcover]

Christopher D. Rahn (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 9, 2001 | ISBN-10: 3540418598 | ISBN-13: 978-3540418597 | Edition: 1

This book presents recent advances in the application of Lyapunov's method for distributed parameter systems to the control of vibration and noise. The material is appropriate for graduate and advanced undergraduate students as well as academic and industrial researchers in engineering and mathematics. The book uses detailed examples to introduce modeling, control theory, and mechatronic implementation for distributed vibration and noise applications. Adaptive, output feedback controllers are shown to asymptotically stabilize distributed vibration and noise and to learn system parameters. Visual feedback control using high speed video and setpoint regulation for systems with rigid body modes are presented. The book provides readers with the tools to model distributed vibration and noise systems, design model-based controllers that guarantee stability and robustness, and implement the controllers with the appropriate sensing, actuation, and control hardware and software.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews of the first edition: "This book is about Lyapunov-based control of various distributed parameter mechanical systems. In addition to the mathematical theory of control development for such systems and associated simulation studies, the book also includes experimental verification of some control results. … This book is intended as a reference book for industrial control researchers as well as a graduate textbook in the area of mechanical control systems." (Edwin Engin Yaz, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2002 m) "This book presents recent advances in the application of Lyapunov’s method to the control of distributed vibration and noise. … There have been many books on vibration and noise control … but much of these books do not address implementation. … The book should be of interest to academic and industrial researchers and graduate and advanced undergraduate students in engineering and applied mathematics. The book is also sufficiently broad and self-contained to act as a graduate text in vibration and noise control." (Prof. J. Anthoine, European Journal of Mechanical and Environmental Engineering, Vol. 47 (4), 2002/2003)

From the Back Cover

Distributed parameter models accurately predict vibration and noise in many manufacturing, space, HVAC, robotics, transportation, and power transmission systems. This book presents recent advances in the application of Lyapunov's method to the control of distributed vibration and noise. The book focuses on the development of adaptive, output feedback controllers that provide asymptotic stabilization using few sensors and actuators, compensate for actuator dynamics, and learn system parameters. Distributed parameter modeling, visual feedback control using high speed video, setpoint regulation for systems with rigid body modes, and active isolation of bounded disturbances are also presented.
