Abstract

A maximum principle is formulated and validated for the vibration control of an annulus plate with the control forces acting on the boundary. In addition, the maximum principle can be applied to plates with multiply connected domains. The performance index is specified as a quadratic functional of displacement and velocity along with a suitable penalty term involving the control forces. Using this index an explicit control law is derived with the help of an adjoint variable satisfying the adjoint differential equation and certain terminal conditions together with the proposed maximum principle. The implementation of the theory is presented and the effectiveness of the boundary control is investigated by a numerical example.
