In this paper, we present a case study of vibration suppression based on the application of active damping to the small boring process of a boring bar with diameter below ${\Phi}12$. The proposed active damping system consists of an acceleration sensor for real-time monitoring of the vibration signal, a driver for phase control in a computer program, and piezoelectric actuators for damping. In this system, the vibration signals are detected by the acceleration sensor and sent to the computer as an input. The phase shift parameter of the natural frequency of the input signal is sent to the data acquisition board in the computer and calculated by the phase control program. This study confirmed the effectiveness of this damping system, and it opens up the possibility of the development of active damping systems for small boring processes.

In this paper, we proposed an air bearing stage with active magnetic preloads in vertical directions compensating motion errors and attenuating vibrations to improve dynamic characteristics. This preloaded design gives simpler configuration of the stage, and active control of preload can be used for compensating motion errors by feedforward method. To improve dynamic characteristics, vibration of the table is monitored by an accelerometer, and controlled by a DSP based digital controller with integrator and band pass filters for suppressing roll and pitch vibration modes. The modes were evaluated by measuring frequency response functions, and compared with compensated responses. This showed effective results for suppressing poorly damped regenerative vibration of air bearings.

A hydraulic type active control system has been developed for the purpose of vibration suppression of ship superstructrures. The active mass of the developed system weighs about three tons and is designed to have ${\pm}5mm$ stroke below 10Hz. Thus maximum control force of the system is about 60kN. Performance test of the developed system has been carried out on a 4,400TEU contrainer carrier built in Samsung Heavy Industry Co., LTD. Through the exciter tests, it has been confirmed that the vibration levels of the superstructure can be reduced to about 20% of the uncontrolled levels near resonant frequency.

Recent power electronics and variable-frequency motor drive technologies have been applied to air conditioners to improve efficiency and power density. However, the mechanical vibrations and acoustic noise resulting from the compressor still remain as a serious problem. This paper presents the development and implementation of an online disturbance state-filter for the suppression of multiple unknown and time-varying vibrations of air conditioning systems. The proposed design has a form of the state-filter based on a Luenburger-style closed-loop speed observer. An active vibration decoupling strategy with an estimated disturbance is provided, which manipulates a motor torque command. Since the proposed estimation does not require any additional transducers or hardware for obtaining real-time information upon disturbances, it is suitable for retrofitting industrial air conditioners.

Squeeze film dampers (SFDs) have been commonly used to effectively enhance the dynamic behavior of the rotating shaft supported by rolling element bearings. However, due to the recent trends of high operating speed, high load capacity and light weight in rotating machinery, it is becoming increasingly important to change the dynamic characteristics of rotating machines in operation so that the excessive vibrations, which may occur particularly when passing through critical speeds or unstable regions, can be avoided. Semi-active type SFDs using magneto-rheological fluid (MR fluid), which responds to an applied magnetic field with a change in rheoloaical behavior, are introduced in order to find its applications to rotating machinery as an effective device attenuating unbalance responses. In this paper, a semi-active SFD using MR fluid is designed, tested and identified by means of linear analysis to investigate the capability of changing its dynamic properties such as damping and stiffness. Furthermore, the proposed device is applied to a rotor system to investigate its potential capability for vibration attenuation: an efficient method for selecting the optimal location of the proposed damper is introduced and control algorithm that could improve the unbalance response properties of a flexible rotor is also proposed.

Semi-active vibration control is one of the attractive control methods for space application due to its robustness as passive damping system and much higher damping performance than passive system. In this paper, performance investigation of semi-active damper considering a mass modeling of functional fluid inside of the damper has been performed. Numerical investigation results confirmed that the damper model considering the fluid mass is effective for vibration suppression performance at a relatively low viscosity range of functional fluid. Based on the analysis results, design method to enhance the performance of semi-active damper has been proposed.

Many of the adaptive noise control systems utilize a form of the least mean square (LMS) algorithm. In the active control of noise, it is common practice to locate an error microphone far from the control source to avoid the near-field effects by evanescent waves. Such a distance between the control source and the error microphone makes a certain level of time-delay inevitable and, hence, may yield undesirable effects on the convergence properties of control algorithms such as filtered-x LMS. This paper discusses the dependence of the convergence rate on the acoustic error path in these popular algorithms and introduces new algorithms which increase the convergence region regardless of the time-delay in the acoustic error path. Performances of the new LMS algorithms are presented in comparison with those by the conventional algorithms based on computer stimulations and experiments.

When fluid flows at high speed over an open cavity, large acousitc pressure is produced by fluid/structure interaction at the downstream edge of the cavity. The goal of this paper is suggestion of effective control method to suppress the noise generated from cavity and numerically simulation of active control. The cavity instability mechanism is simulated and a close-loop control algorithm is implemented. The effects of the actuator and some control function are discussed. The compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved with the high-order and high-resolution numerical schemes to precisely simulate the interaction between flow and acoustic. The results show that noise is effectively suppressed with the control method suggested in this paper.
