Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are a class of emerging smart materials in which
their mechanical and rheological properties can be immediately and reversibly altered upon …

Experimental implementation of input–output feedback linearization in controlling the
dynamics of a nonlinear pitch–plunge aeroelastic system is presented. The control objective …

The paper deals with Limit Cycle Oscillations (LCOs) in a Pitch & Plunge model of the wing
dynamics, where the stiffness on the plunge displacement is assumed to be an odd fifth …

Rotating mechanical equipment such as pumps and motors can suffer from unattenuated
torsional vibration. The causes of such vibration range from imbalance within the rotating …

Input-output partial feedback linearisation is demonstrated experimentally for the first time on
a system with non-smooth nonlinearity, a laboratory three degrees of freedom lumped mass …

Friction-Induced Vibration and noisE (FIVE) is still a complex and nonlinear physical
phenomenon which is characterized by the appearance of instabilities and self-sustained …

This work explores the closed-loop response of the MODFLEX flexible wing in the presence
of 1–cosine gusts. The ultimate aim of the project is to investigate the effects of gusts on a …

This paper aims to elucidate the application of feedback linearization in systems having
nonsmooth nonlinearities. With the aid of analytical expressions originating from classical …

Non-smooth nonlinearities such as freeplay, bilinear/piece-wise linear stiffness are among
the various types of nonlinearity that have been encountered in aeroelastic systems …

This paper presents the numerical investigation and experimental validation of a feedback
linearization control technique for suppression of limit cycle oscillations in an aeroelastic …
