Vibration control is an important problem in practical engineering. Optimal control is widely
used, but the uncertainties in practical engineering may lead to the failure of the system. To …

In the present study, an integrated material and structure (IMAS) design approach is
proposed for fabrication of a multifunctional grille composite sandwich plate. It consists of …

During the overall processing of thin-walled parts (TWPs), the guaranteed capability of the
machining process and quality is determined by fixtures. Therefore, reliable fixtures suitable …

The growing requirement for the product having low cost along with excellent quality has
moved work towards composite materials in recent years. Composite materials are very …

A novel functionally graded (FG) sandwich metastructure beam is proposed for broadband
vibration reduction based on the band gaps of Bragg scattering and local resonance. The …

Low-frequency vibration of thin-walled materials, which are widely used in aircrafts, can lead
to fatal damage of aircraft components and even serious accidents. Efficient suppression of …

Abstracts This paper investigates the effect of porosity on active damping of geometrically
nonlinear vibrations (GNLV) of the magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) functionally graded (FG) …

In the spacecraft, optical payloads are greatly disturbed by micro-vibration. Therefore, the
active-passive vibration isolation system (APVIS) with stable performance and high …

Continuous girder bridge is one of the most widely used bridge types at present, but its
structural characteristics are not conducive to earthquake resistance. Therefore, it is of great …

Abstract In this study, Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) as actuator has been used for open-
loop active vibration control (AVC) in additive manufactured structures made of polylactic …
