Abstract
The dynamics of a flexural beam actuated by induced strain surface bonded (piezoelectric) actuators is considered. The bending moment produced by the single actuator is evaluated by means of the pin-force model. A modal approach is then used to build special dynamic influence functions which explicitly account for the size and the position of the actuator. Simple optimal geometrical conditions are then obtained and illustrated fur several cases with different boundary conditions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
