Abstract

To improve the internal sound quality of an electric vehicle, the noises (tire and road noises), vibration, and discomfort should be reduced effectively. Compared to the conventional damping materials, the locally resonant metamaterial is advantageous in terms of reducing the vibration in the low frequency band and reducing the weight through a stop band, where vibration is not transmitted. However, the locally resonant metamaterial installed in a finite structure fails to form an ideal stop band. Additionally, there is a problem of occurrence vibration mode at an arbitrary frequency. Accordingly, there is a need for an active vibration control method capable of learning and actively reducing the vibration modes occurring at arbitrary frequencies within the stop band in real-time. In this study, a real-time state-space identification-based active vibration control method was proposed to reduce the vibration modes occurring at arbitrary frequencies within the stationary band of local resonance metamaterials. The active vibration control method proposed in this study, combined with the existing passive vibration reduction method, can be utilized to effectively reduce the vibration for random disturbance of a fluctuating system.
