Abstract

A control strategy is presented incorporating friction which can be adapted within a cycle of vibration. During base shock input, the friction is switched on and off based on specified response parameters. The predicted response of a semi active system is compared with that of a passive isolation system. The strategy is shown to produce an improved displacement reduction and a smaller maximum displacement compared to the base input; a result which cannot be obtained with a typical passive system. The models are then validated using an experimental rig, representing a two degree of freedom system, having an electromagnet to switch on and off friction via the control logic. Good agreement is obtained in addition to identifying optimum parameter choices.
