Abstract

In this paper a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) with and without actuator dynamic model for an electric-type active mass driver (AMD) system for structural vibration control has been developed. The electric-type active mass driver (AMD) system is composed primarily of an electric servomotor and a ball screw, the electrical AMD system is free from noise problems, oil leakage, and labor-intensive maintenance that commonly are associated with hydraulic AMD systems. The desired stroke amplification of the mass and the power demand of the servomotor can be adjusted via the ball screw pitch, which affects the effectiveness and efficiency of the system. The AMD system performances without and with introduction of the actuators dynamic model are explored. The reductions of the peak responses can reach as high as 65% if the actuator is properly chosen. And the proposed system is recommended for practical implementation.
