Active Mass Damper - 2FLR
Challenge:
Design a control system to dampen the vibrations
in a building-like structure using a MIMO approach
Description:
This advanced active mass damping experiment
is useful to study the benefits of employing individual AMD's on
each floor as opposed to the classical approach of using a single
AMD on top of a building. A tall building-like structure consisting
of two floors is instrumented with an accelerometer on each floor
to measure their acceleration. The structure is flexible along its
facade. Two carts, each driven via a rack and pinion mechanism are
mounted, one on each.
The goal
is to design a feedback controller that measures the cart positions
and the accelerations of the "floors" to
dampen the vibrations of the structure effectively. The system is
supplied with a state feedback controller. You may design any other
controller you wish.
