Abstract
In this study, we introduce progress in intelligent control for reducing structural vibrations. The field of intelligent control for dampening structural vibrations is evolving rapidly, driven by advancements in materials science, AI, and actuator technology. These innovations have led to more efficient, reliable, and adaptable vibration-control systems with applications ranging from civil engineering to aerospace. The use of smart materials has opened new avenues for vibration control of piezoelectric materials. When mechanical stress is applied to these materials, an electric charge response is formed, allowing for precise control over the vibrations. Improved computational models and simulations play crucial roles in the design and testing of vibration-control systems. Finite element analysis helps in accurately predicting the behavior of structures under various loads, thereby aiding in the design of effective vibration-control systems. In our work, we use intelligent control theory to dampen structural vibrations in engineering structures.
