A Comparative Study Based on Different Control Algorithms for Suppressing Multistage Gear Transmission System Vibrations

Abstract EN

A modal analysis (MA) was preconsidered to determine a novel active vibration control (AVC) structure of multistage gear transmission system (MGTS) and an appropriate actuating position for the piezoelectric actuator (PZT); the results of the calculating method and the finite element method (FEM) were compared to validate the reliability of MA.

The controllers based on different control algorithms were designed to drive the PZTs to output the control force for suppressing the host structure vibrations.

To analyze the feasibility of the applied control schemes and discuss the control effects dominated by the different control algorithms, a series of active vibration control numerical simulations were studied.

The cosimulation results validate the practicability of the proposed control schemes and provide a forcible guidance for the further experimental works.
