A positive position feedback (PPF) controller is proposed to control the nonlinear vibrations of a horizontally supported Jeffcott-rotor system. A nonlinear restoring force and the rotor weight are considered in the system model. The controller is coupled to the system with 1:1 internal resonance. A second order approximate solution to the system governing equations is constructed by applying the multiple scales perturbation technique (MSPT). The bifurcation analyses of the Jeffcott-rotor system before and after control are conducted. The effects of the different controller parameters on the system frequency–response curves are investigated. Optimum working conditions of the controlled system are extracted to be used in the design of such systems. Numerical simulations demonstrated a good agreement with the approximate results that obtained by MSPT. A comparison is provided with already published work.
