The Active Magnetorheological Support as an Element of Damping of Vibrations Transferred from the Ground to Large-Scale Structure Supports

Article Preview

Abstract:

The active support of a large-scale structure, made up of two elements was designed and manufactured. The first of them - piezoelectric actuator, enables the simulations of vibrations transferred from the ground to the structure. In order to minimize vibrations transmitted through the ground to the construction, the second element of the active support - a system based on magnetorheological dampers was used. The active support enables the simulations of vibrations from the ground using a piezoelectric stack controlled in a reverse feedback loop. Control signals of the feedback loop are: the volume of deformation and vibrations in the selected structures node.
