Active vibration control; linear quadratic tracking; two-degrees of freedom system

In the last few decades, researchers have proposed many control techniques to suppress unwanted vibrations in a structure. In this work, a novel and simple technique is proposed for the active vibration control. In this technique, an optimal tracking control is employed to suppress vibrations in a structure by simultaneously tracking zero references for modes of vibration. To illustrate the technique, a two-degrees of freedom spring-mass-dampersystem is considered as a test system. The mathematical model of the system is derived and then converted into a state-space model. A linear quadratic tracking control law is then used to make the disturbed system track zero references.
