educational vibration control | artificial intelligence | matlab | proportional-integral-derivative (PID)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION /Â FEATURES
This product is a complete prototype of an educational vibration control rig using mechatronic design approach employing novel. It is a simple conventional feedback control. In addition, act as Artificial Intelligence (Al) algorithms for active vibration control of flexible structures. It covered a wide range of mechanical, electrical courses and laboratories including instrumentation, control, mechatronics, vibration and so on.

NEEDS
A portable experimental rig with signal conditioning and controller box integrated with Matlab.
Graphical User Interface (GUI) .
Able to stimulate and conduct experiments to study the behavior of the flexible structures and the performance of PID controller in active vibration suppression of the flexible structure system.
The active vibration control method works by artificially generating sources that absorb the energy caused by the unwanted vibrations in order to suppress or reduce their effect on the overall system.
Suitable for Higher Learning Institution Educational Rig.
APPROACH
A new approach of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller tuning via an evolutionary algorithm that optimally suppresses the vibration of a flexible beam system using a piezoelectric actuator. The system’s dynamic model is identified based on autoregression with exogenous input (ARX) structure using recursive least square
BENEFITS
Product can be switched to either in simulation mode only or experimental mode or both
Effective vibration reduction of flexible structures with various bound conditions and complete with robust controller algorithms.
Easily implemented in the real-time and interactive graphical user interface.
COMPETITORS
Aircraft system.
Automation system.
