Active control of flexible structures using distributed sensors and actuators

Smart structures consist of highly distributed sensors and actuators and controllers are used to coordinate between the sensors and actuators. Many previous studies have shown that distributed control systems exhibit favorable outcomes in suppressing the vibration of structures. In this project, a m...
