A two-input-one-ouptut model of a piezoelectric laminate is used; slewing torque and piezoactuator voltage are the two inputs and the tip-position is the output. Two control design examples are used to demonstrate the utility of active control in damping the vibrations in a slewing motion.12enPublisher Copyright: © 1993 SPIE.
