1) Cite at least three sample applications for each lesson.


a) Active Control of Optical Aperture
b) Electro-Hydraulic Actuator
c) Smart Structural Control
2) Details the processes of the sample
a) For the vibration and shape control of flexible systems: In the proposed method the only
parameter that needs to be defined is the output speed, which is limited only by the
physical constraints of the drive system. The calculation of an optimum speed is
demonstrated by simulation examples. It is also shown that, under certain
circumstances, the process can be further simplified and the need for inverse dynamics
is eliminated.
b) For Electro-Hydraulic Actuator - replace hydraulic systems with self-contained actuators
operated solely by electrical power. EHAs eliminate the need for separate hydraulic
pumps and tubing, simplifying system architectures and improving safety and reliability.
This technology originally was developed for the aerospace industry but has since
expanded into many other industries where hydraulic power is commonly used.
Instead of the energy needed to move the controls being supplied by an external
hydraulic supply, it is supplied over normal electrical wiring, albeit larger wiring than
what would be found in a fly-by-wire system. The speed of the motion is controlled
through the use of pulse-code modulation. The result is a "power-by-wire" system,
where both the control and energy are sent through a single set of wires.
c) For Smart structural control - Traditional active control can essentially control a finite
number of vibrating modes of a continuous system. This may create instability due to the
unwanted excitation of the higher modes. Smart structural control, on the other hand, is
distributed in nature. It consumes less energy, gurantees stability and could be integrated
easily to the vibrating body.

Problems:

3) A 1.30 x 103-kg car is constructed on a frame supported by four springs. Each spring constant 2 x
104N/m. if two people riding in the car have a combined mass of 1.60 x 102 kg. find the
frequency of the vibration of the car when it is driven over a pothole in the road. Find also the
period and the angular frequency. Assume the weight is evenly distributed.
Solution:

1 1 1 1
m= (mcar + mpass) = (1.30x103kgm + 1.60 x And for period, T = = => T = 0.8488
4 4 f 1.1781 Hz
102kgm)
m = 365kgm While for the angular frequency ω=¿2
to find the frequency of the vibration: πf =2 π (1.1781 Hz) = 7.40 rad/s
1 k
= 1 2.00 x 104 N / m
f=
2π √ m 2π √ 365 kgm
4) What are the position, velocity and acceleration of an object vibrating at the end of a horizontal

spring after 1 minute if the equation for its position is x = (500 mm) cos ( π8 t ) ?
x = (0.50 m) cos (0.393 rad)
x = 0.4619 m
v = -Aω sin (ωt)
= -(0.50 m) (0.393 rad/s) sin (0.393 rad/s x 60 s)
V = 0.1965 m/s
a = -Aω2cos (ωt)
= -(0.50 m) (0.393 rad/s2)2 cos (0.393 rad/s x 60 s)
a = -0.001394 m/s2

5) Find the amplitude, frequency and period of motion for an object vibrating at the end of a
horizontal spring if the equation for its position as a function of time is
π
x = (0.250m) cos( t)
800
a) Find the maximum magnitude of the velocity and acceleration.
To calculate for the max velocity, v = -Aω sin(ωt )
Vmax = Aω = (0.250m) (0.393 rad/s) = 0.0983
Vmax = 0.0983 m/s
Final velocity is 0.0983 m/s2

To calculate for acceleration, a = -Aω 2 cos(ωt )


amax = Aω 2 = (0.250m)(0.393 rad/s) = 0.0386 m/s
amax = 0.0386 m/s2
Final acceleration is 0.0386m/s2

b) What are the position, velocity and acceleration of the object after 100s has elapsed?
x is used for the position.
x = (0.250m) cos(0.393 rad) = 0.231m
To calculate for the velocity , v = -Aω sin(ωt )
v = -(0.250m)(0.393 rad/s) sin(0.393 rad/s ∙ 100 s)
v = -0.0245m/s2
Final velocity is -0.0245m/s2

To calculate for the acceleration


a = -Aω 2 cos(ωt )
= -(0.250m)(0.393 rad/s) cos(0.393 rad/s ∙ 100 s)
a = -0.0298m/s2
Final acceleration is -0.0298m/s2
