Abstract

Virtual absorbed energy of the piezoelectric patch actuator is a new cost function for the optimal feedback gain which has been proved theoretically. In this work, its performance is validated by experiments on the reduction of the vibration and sound radiation of a smart panel with 9 decentralized control loops. Each control unit consists of a collocated piezoelectric patch actuator and accelerometer sensor with a single channel digital controller. Since the system is not unconditionally stable, a phase lag compensator is designed to guarantee the stability for larger feedback gains. The stability of the multi-channel decentralized feedback control system has been assessed by the eigenvalue locus of the open loop sensor-actuator frequency response function matrix. The control effectiveness of the reduction of the panel kinetic energy has been assessed by the energy at 12 error sensors. It is observed that the feedback gains minimizing the kinetic energy and maximizing the broadband virtual energy are nearly the same.
