Abstract
En 中文
Membrane structures, which are widely used in aerospace and civil engineering, are susceptible to large amplitude vibrations due to their low structural damping and high flexibility, leading to the degradation of their working performance. Strong electric fields are commonly needed for piezoelectric actuators to control larger amplitude vibration of membrane structures. However, the effect of piezoelectric nonlinearity due to strong electric fields on the control performance of membrane structures is still underexplored. Given the importance of piezoelectric nonlinearity due to strong electric fields, the present study aims to investigate the vibration control performance of piezoelectric actuators for membrane structures. First, based on the piezoelectric nonlinear constitutive equation, the actuation equation of the piezoelectric actuator is generated. Then, following D ' Alembert's principle, a nonlinear dynamic control model of membrane structure containing actuation force is derived. Finally, active vibration control based on velocity feedback algorithms is realized. The results show that the predicted strain without considering the piezoelectric nonlinearity is 80 % smaller than the finite element structure at 500 V. Meanwhile, the errors of Root Mean Squared (RMS) control displacement without considering the piezoelectric nonlinearity are more than 24 % when vibration amplitudes achieve 10 % of the membrane thickness. The developed model provides theoretical implications for active vibration control of flexible structures with piezoelectric actuators in strong electric field environments.
