... and can be used with multiphysics computational tools, and in principle, with experimental data. The proposed approach is validated using a simple, four degree of freedom model of a wind turbine. The predictions for the linear system are validated against an exact solution of the problem...

... to actively control panel vibrations. The control inputs are given by the electric fields required to drive the actuators based on piezoelectric actuation. Nonlinear feedback control laws are formulated through a transformation of the discretized nonlinear system into an equivalent controllable linear system...

...Khalid L. Sorensen; Patrick W. Cross; William E. Singhose; Shashvat Prakash Input shaping is an effective method for reducing oscillatory motion in linear systems. Many physical systems, however, exhibit discontinuous dynamics, such as saturation, rate limiting, backlash, and dead-zone. These hard...

... of linear systems in Laplace’s domain is also discussed. The formulation is applied to the solution of simple, yet illustrative problems, related to rigid and deformable bodies. Some implications of considering deformable continua are addressed. control system analysis differential algebraic equations...
