A Study of Neural and Conventional Control Paradigms in Active Digital Control

Abstract

dc:description

The objective of this study is to investigate/compare some practical issues in structural vibration control associated with conventional and neural approaches. For this purpose two fundamental structural control problems are chosen for investigation. The first problem is a base isolation system which is an example of rigid body structural control. The second problem involves the reduction of excessive vibrations of a nonlinear (geometrically) cantilevered plate structure which is an example of flexible structural control.
