• Resumen

  • The authors have demonstrated that human-induced vibration can be controlled with passive, active and semi active inertial controllers working as a single-input single-output or multi-input multi output configuration. This paper describes a general methodology for designing inertial controller for human-induced vibration that can meet passive, active and semi-active controller and both linear and nonlinear modalities. That is, a feedback-based methodology has been developed in which the control system is separated from the structure in order to be designed as a feedback controller, designing both location and control parameters. The structure excites an inertial system placed on it and this system, placed on the structure, applies forces to it. Thus, the control forces of the inertial mass controller can be configured into the loop to optimize the design parameters. A numerical example is presented to show the potential of the method.
