Pipeline Vibration Control Using Magnetorheological Damping Clamps under Fuzzy–PID Control Algorithm

Abstract

Aiming at the problem of low-frequency vibration of the hydraulic pipeline, a new type of semi-active damping magnetorheological (MR) damping clamp structure is designed. The structure size and material of the MR damping clamp were determined. The control model of the vibration damping system was established, and the control method combining fuzzy control and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control was used to carry out the numerical simulation, which proved that the fuzzy–PID control algorithm is effective and stable. The results show that the MR damping clamp proposed in this paper can effectively suppress the axial displacement and acceleration of the hydraulic pipeline in the excitation frequency range of 1 Hz~10 Hz. This research provides a new technical approach for low-frequency vibration control of hydraulic pipelines.
