Abstract

A method has been developed for analyzing the elastodynamic response ofhigh-speed flexible linkage mechanisms with piezoelectric sensors andactuators. The finite element analysis model is obtained by using amixed variational approach with Hamilton's principle. An efficientsolution method is developed on the basis of complex mode theory. Afour-bar linkage mechanism with all flexible links is employed as anexample to demonstrate the capability of the proposed method. Theinvestigation provides a theoretical basis for complex mode activevibration control of high-speed flexible mechanism systems.
