With the evelopment of inustry an avance technology, vibration environment is becoming more an more complex. The traitional structural ynamics esign is har to meet the high reliability of the structure, so it s inevitable to seek new ways of vibration control. Active vibration control is the avance technology in the current vibration engineering fiel, an is the integration of many subjects, such as ynamics, control, computer, testing technology an materials science, etc. This paper aopts finite element metho commonly use in engineering for the analysis on plate structure moeling, an numerical simulation stuy on the active vibration control. Finally, calculation examples of the plate verify the effectiveness of previous work. Brief introuction With the evelopment of inustry an avance technology, the scale of structure is becoming larger, an vibration environment is becoming more an more complex. The traitional structural ynamics esign is har to be applie. Structural vibration control has become one of the major topics of moern engineering technology, the intelligent control on suppression of structure eformation an isturbance has been highly value in the engineering circle an theoretical circle. Base on the nee of external energy, structural vibration control methos are ivie into three categories: passive control, active control an integrate passive an active control (also calle hybri control). assive control is mainly the way that requires no external energy through aing amping materials into the structure, which is calle amping processing. When the structure vibrates, strain of amping layer will transform the vibration energy into strain energy that can be issipate as heat so as to restrain vibration, which is an effective way to solve the structural vibration control. The shortcoming of this metho is limite amping effect to low frequency vibration, weak strain capacity to abrupt environment, an ifficult to aapt to the complex an changing mechanical environment. Active vibration control of structure is to reuce the response of the structure uner environmental loa by the use of external energy for control force, which is consiere to be an effective metho. In recent years, with the rapi evelopment of material science, control, microelectronics an computer technology, especially the breakthrough of the stuy on new sensors an actuators, the new sensing materials an actuation materials are constantly applie to replace traitional sensors an actuators in the active vibration control of structure, which promotes the evelopment of the new technology in structure esign, an generates the bran new intelligent structure. The finite element metho is wiely use in engineering practice at present; the existing mature application software, such as ATRAN/NASTRAN an ANSYS are easy for use an promotion. The finite element moeling an structural response analysis are simple an convenient by making use of existing software, an are free from the self-ivision of finite element an writing teious 5.

programs; base on large an common structural finite element analysis software, integrate structure esign, optimization, structure analysis an control esign with simulation, complete in the same environment once for all, an truly realize the integration of structural control. This paper aopts finite element metho commonly use in engineering for the analysis on plate structure moeling, an numerical simulation stuy on the active vibration control. Finally, calculation examples of the plate verify the effectiveness of previous work. Simulation stuy on vibration control The traitional esign metho of structural vibration control has always been to follow the flow shown in chart, in which the esign requirements of controller have a certain mathematical moel; the certain mathematical moel is very effective to simple structure; in the process of moeling for complex structure, simplifie treatment of ignoring a few minor factors such as consiering no higher orer moes effect, reucing orer, nonlinear link linearization an steay time varying parameters, an finally get the mathematical moel suitable for control system esign. The moel is only an approximation of actual system, an ifferent from previous moel. However, the cost will increase through experimental metho for structural vibration control, which apparently oes not conform to the integrate esign thought for moern structural control. Structure Mathematical Simplification Control moel esign Figure. Traitional control flow chart With the evelopment of finite element technology, the above problems have been improve a lot. Structural vibration control esign technology base on finite element metho irectly esigns for finite element moel of structure rather than simplifie mathematical moel, as shown in chart. The basic iea is to make use of the finite element structure analysis technology, conuct control simulation experiments with finite element moels replacing real object, etermine control methos an optimize control parameters. The specific metho is: firstly, buil structural finite element moel an loa conitions; seconly, make structural ynamic response analysis, output feeback signal from analysis results an apply control signal through certain control algorithm in the structure; thirly, analyze structural response, calculate an apply control signal; repeat the above process until the terminal conitions are satisfie. The whole process is just like the signal sensor, acquisition, processing, an actuator in the control experiment except that the actual response of the structure is replace by finite element ynamic response analysis.

Finite element moeling As plate structure is a kin of simple an common structure, its moeling stuy is comparatively typical. Laminate piezoelectric plate is three-layer structure, with both linear elastic materials an nonlinear materials, so its finite element moeling an moal analysis are the key technologies. Generally, there are four kins of piezoelectric formula for linear piezoelectric materials accoring to the ifferent inepenent variables, of which the first an secon formula are mostly use. The first kin of piezoelectric equation expression is as follows, in which the inepenent variables are staning for stress, an staning for electric fiel intensity. {D}=[]{ }+[ ]{} () { }=[S t ]{ }+[ ] {} () In the first kin formula, [] is piezoelectric strain constant matrix; {D} is electric isplacement vector; [ ] is ielectric constant matrix when stress is zero or constant; { } is strain vector; [S ] is flexible flexibility constant matrix when electric fiel intensity is zero or constant. The secon kin of piezoelectric equation expression is as follows, in which the inepenent variables areεstaning for strain, an staning for electric fiel intensity. {D}=[e]{ }+ [ ]{} () { }=[C ]{ }-[e] T {} (4) In the secon kin formula, [e] is piezoelectric stress constant matrix; [ ] is ielectric constant matrix when strain is zero or constant; [C] is flexible stiffness constant matrix when electric fiel intensity is zero or constant. In the above two kin of piezoelectric formula, piezoelectric constant an flexible constant have the following relation: [e]=[][c ] (5) For composite piezoelectric materials, the formula (-) an (-) can be expresse as: D D D 5 4 (6) 45

(8) Since the avent of finite element technology in the 7s, many mechanical problems that is not solve or completely solve can be solve with the technology. Finite element technology has been eveloping so well for nearly years that there seems to be no mechanical problems that can t be solve by finite element. Suitable finite element moel shall be establishe for laminate plate unit analysis, an comparative analysis on the same issue aopting ifferent unit when necessary. The weakness of this metho is that the moeling of complex structure is very ifficult, an the more accurate the moel, the more egrees of freeom; the common workstations are har to bear the resources consumption of the machine. For the simple structure of plate, all kins of finite element programs such as Cosmosm, Nastran, Aina an Ansys can easily solve varie finite element analysis. The ynamics equations of system can be written in general form: [M]{u}+[C]{u}+[K]{u}={F} (9) Cantilever (mm*5mm*mm), top an bottom surface with iezoelectric Transucer (ZT) are sensors an actuators, as shown in chart. The material constant of beam: 7.5* N / m elasticity moulus p, oisson ratio k., mass ensity 7kg/ m, supposing the moel of ZT sensors an actuators is the same as the one for physical experiment, the thickness h=mm, mass ensity 6kg/ m 6.* N / m, elasticity moulus p, k. 46

In orer to verify the valiity of the above vibration control metho, combine with a numerical example an experiment, etermine the response of the active structure control before an after an make the curve. Accoring to the simulation results an experimental results, the active control aopting piezoelectric structure is effective to the structural vibration suppression. The paper makes moal analysis on the active structure, an carries numerical simulation an experiment on active vibration suppression. 47
