Abstract
This paper deals with optimal design strategy of the connected control method for flexible structures with same dynamic properties. One of the authors had already proposed effectiveness of connected control method for vibration control of flexible structures arranged in parallel. However, its control performance reduces as the natural frequencies of structures become closer. Therefore, the authors have presented a modified control mechanism in which the actuators are connected to the structures with a difference in its connecting position using long arms. However, its optimal design strategy of vibration control device has not been established yet. In this report, the optimal design strategy of passive control is derived. Computer simulations and experiments are carried out and the effectiveness of the presented optimal design strategy is confirmed.
