1. DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF FLC APPLIED TO A SMART GREENHOUSE
ABSTRACT Greenhouse cultivation needs an accurate modelling and an optimised control system to ensure an adequate microclimatic condition for plants. It represents a complex task due to the high number of input factors. For this reason, an improved intermediate modelling was established under the platform of the MATLAB/Simulink environment to simulate the en

2. Consideration of Spillover Effect in Active Vibration Suppression of a Smart Composite Plate Using Piezoelectric Elements
Abstract In this paper, the problem of vibration suppression of a smart composite plate with bonded piezoelectric patches is considered. A higher order plate model is used for finite element modeling of the plate and the PID controller is used to generate control voltage command to the piezo actuators from the piezo sensors data. Derived formulation and the

4. Control of a Support Excitation Smart Beam Subjected to a Follower Force with Piezoelectric Sensors/Actuators
Abstract In this paper, an active control is used to suppress the flutter vibration of a support excitation beam subjected to a follower force, using piezoelectric sensors/actuators. The beam is fixed to a motion support from one end and the other end is subjected to a follower force. The governing equations of motion are derived based on the generalized fun

5. Vibration attenuation and shape control of surface mounted, embedded smart beam
Active Vibration Control (AVC) using smart structure is used to reduce the vibration of a system by automatic modification of the system structural response. AVC is widely used, because of its wide and broad frequency response range, low additional mass, high adaptability and good efficiency. A lot of research has been done on Finite Element (FE) models for

6. The use of smart structures in the realization of effective semi-active Control systems for vibration reduction
The realization of semi-active actuators by smart structures is discussed. Semi-active actuators have the advantage of consuming much less power than direct-active actuators and are appropriate for the utilization in vibration problems encountered in aeronautical applications, where the loads are in general too high for direct-active actuators to perform.

7. Control of strain in a flexible beam using Ni-Ti-Cu shape memory alloy wire actuators
In this paper the development of an experimental test bench to analyze and control the strain of a flexible aluminum beam subjected to external disturbances is described. In the proposed platform, strain-gauges are used to measure the strain of the beam in a single cantilever mode while Ni-Ti-Cu Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wires are used as force actuators. Dat

8. Metodologia para a alocação ótima discreta de sensores e atuadores piezoelétricos na simulação do controle de vibrações em estruturas de materiais compósitos laminados
O principal objetivo do controle de vibrações é a sua redução ou minimização, através da modificação automática da resposta estrutural. Em muitas situações isto é necessário para promover a estabilidade estrutural, e para alcançar o alto desempenho mecânico necessário em diversas áreas técnicas, tais como a engenharia aeroespacial, civil
