Abstract
In this paper we focus on the adaptive control of structural acoustics using intelligent structures with embedded piezoelectric (PZT) patches and low cost digital signal processor systems. After a discussion on the adaptive feedforward control scheme, a hybrid adaptive control scheme is proposed, which takes advantage of both feedback control and adaptive feedforward control. The two schemes are realized on a low-cost, small volume, convenient and universal digital signal processing (DSP) board. A carbon fiber reinforced polymer plate with two embedded PZT patches is developed and used in two experiments. The first experiment is adaptive interior noise control using the intelligent plate, in which the adaptive feedforward control scheme is employed. Obvious noise reduction is obtained for constant frequency, swept frequency and varying amplitude harmonic disturbances. The second experiment is adaptive control of sound-induced vibration of the plate, where two embedded PZT patches are used as an actuator and a sensor, respectively, and the hybrid adaptive controller is applied. The full vibration reduction for various harmonic excitations is obtained, verifying the advantage of the hybrid adaptive control. It is demonstrated that active control of structural acoustics can be efficiently achieved by employing intelligent structures, advanced adaptive control schemes and the low-cost DSP board.
