ESO-Based Vibration Control for All-Clamped Plate Using an Electrodynamic Inertial Actuator

Abstract

This paper proposes a disturbance rejection method with extended state observer (ESO) and a tracking differentiator (TD) to realize vibration suppression of all-clamped plate structure in the presence of lumped disturbance, i.e. internal dynamic uncertainties, unknown external forces and accelerometer measurement noises. First, the structure is modeled as two degrees of freedom system based on vibration characteristics. Second, an ESO is employed to ensure the vibration suppression performance by estimating the lumped disturbances and compensating these disturbances via real-time feedforward mechanism. Meanwhile, a TD is introduced to eliminate the influence of the measurement noises. Moreover, the stability of the closed-loop system is discussed in detail. Finally, the proposed controller is verified on the hardware-in-loop plat-form based on NI PCIe-6343 data acquisition card. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the proposed method possesses good vibration suppression performance.
