Abstract

In this article, an adaptive semi-active SSDV (Synchronized Switch Damping on Voltage) method based on the LMS algorithm is proposed and applied to the vibration control of a composite beam. In the SSDV method, the value of voltage source in the switching circuit is critical to its control performance. In the adaptive approach proposed in this study, the voltage source is adjusted adaptively using the LMS algorithm. Two cases of the adjustment are considered. In the first case, as an improvement to the enhanced SSDV, the voltage coefficient is adjusted by the LMS algorithm. In the second case, as an improvement to the classical SSDV, the voltage value is adjusted directly. The new adaptive approach is compared with the derivative-based adaptive SSDV proposed in the former study in the control of the first mode of a composite beam. The control results show that adaptive adjustment of voltage value and adaptive adjustment of voltage coefficient are equally effective in the vibration control of the composite beam and that LMS-based approach is slightly better than the derivative-based approach.
