“…Change in the stiffness of an elastic system may affect its vibration behavior. Natori et al [42] proposed a stiffness and damping control of a truss structure using axial member actuators with a latch mechanism which was released to decrease the stiffness and to avoid the resonance during dynamic excitation, and also performed an experiment using a truss beam.…”

“…To carry out a reliable vibration control of very lowfrequency modes of a large space structure, the use of a proof-mass type actuator with no mechanical spring was proposed by Ohkami and coworkers [42]. Using the proposed actuator, they applied three kinds of fuzzy control algorithm, i.e.…”

Use of an active member for vibration control has been investigated for the last several years [3,4], and it is proposed that an active member is suitable for truss structures, whose members are subjected to only an axial force [5]. The latter subject has great influence upon the precise positioning of mission instruments on board, and of the design of space structures themselves [6,7].…”

This paper describes investigations on adaptive vibration control and shape adjustment of truss structures making use of the active member actuator. The actuator was manufactured in an attempt to achieve these functions by linear actuating. Fundamental characteristics were examined statically and dynamically. Numerical simulations of planar truss model with the configuration of one pair of collocated actuator and sensor shows that a state observer can estimate truncated modes well and the excited vibration can be controlled rapidly. ,1. of IN TELL.
