... are presented. By using this method, the speedy computation of eigenvalue problem of flexible structures can be realized, and the repeated eignvalue problem can be solved simply and conveniently. This method has the low order of system matrix, high computational efficiency, and stability. Formulations...

...M. A. Rastgaar; M. Ahmadian; S. C. Southward Orthogonal eigenstructure control is a novel control method that can be used for vibration suppression in flexible structures. The method described in this study does not need defining the desired locations of the closed-loop poles or predetermining...

...) example is analyzed, in which an electrostatic force below a buckled strip causes the strip to snap downward, and the critical force is obtained as a function of the vertical gap. 18 06 2008 29 12 2008 23 04 2009 bending buckling elasticity flexible structures micromechanical...

...William J. O’Connor; Alessandro Fumagalli The problem of controlling the position and vibration of open-chain flexible structures undergoing fast maneuvers is of wide interest. In this work, the general flexible structure is actuated by a single actuator at one end, which, depending on the case...
