    Abstract

    High-precision machines typically suffer from small but persistent vibrations. As it is difficult to damp these vibrations by passive means, research at the Drebbel Institute is aimed at the development of an active structural element that can be used for vibration control. The active structural element, popularly referred to as ‘Smart Disc’, is based on a piezoelectric position actuator and a piezoelectric force sensor.
    One of the main problems in active control is to ensure stability. In this respect it is often advantageous to consider the use of so-called collocated actuator-sensor-pairs, as this enables to actively implement a passive control law, which is robustly stable, irrespective of structural modeling errors. Within the context of vibration control for lightly damped structures, collocated actuator-sensor-pairs are known to be well-suited to obtain robust active damping [1, 2].
