Abstract
Today, vibration control of continuous systems that is also referred as structure has been
remarkably developed. Due to varied application of structures such as beam, plate, shell,
panel, truss, etc., engineers have faced with new and more complex challenges in order to
control these structures for their own purposes. The life of an engineering structure in each
industry is a major factor for maintenance of equipment. The life of engineering structures
reduces due to vibration amplitude or the design for mechanical system can be far from the
goals of designers. In this study, a thin cantilever Timoshenko beam has been considered. A
smart structure model has been designed using PID controller combined with fuzzy logic for
vibration attenuation. Here, PID controller has been used in order to control the structure. In
this controller there are three unknown coefficients in Kp, Ki and Kd matrices using multi-
objective genetic algorithm for or MOGA, and the unknown coefficients are determined as
result of searching this algorithm during the beam in order to determine an optimal point or
points of beam to place sensor and piezoelectric actuator in the top and down for the structural
suppression at the least possible time. Vibration beam model is based on finite element
numerical method. It has been embedded on the beam regarding the piezoelectric direct and
inverse property as the sensor and actuator in order to be a factor of active control for
attenuation of transverse displacement.

1. Introduction
According to the requirement of various industries to control their structures due to dynamic
stimulations including disturbance and noise, designers have considered using accurate,
accessible, and simple controllers with respect to the control of these unwanted inputs.
However, developing fuzzy logic and deploying it for equipment construction, robust control
of systems has been possible. This study attempted both to make a simple and reliable
controller available and to stabilize robustly the system using PID-controller combined with
fuzzy logic. M.Ebrahimnejad et al. used piezoelectric for vibration attenuating of a truss
structure, pole placement, and LQR methods to recognize the best place to embed the
piezoelectric sensor and actuator [1]. J.Arushankar et al. using sliding mode controller
attempted to control a smart beam (beam along with piezoelectric) due to external
stimulations and disturbances. The beam was a model of a part of aircraft structure frequently
used in aviation industry [2]. N.Ghareeb et al. embedded PVDF, which acted as sensor and
actuator, on a cantilever beam. Then, using Luapunov linear stability theory, they extracted
the first vibration materials of a beam and found out remarkable results [3]. N.M.Sridevi et al.
using H∞ controller controlled a beam along with piezoelectric in several vibrating modes.
The results of this controller also showed more optimized performance compared with LQR
controller [4]. T.C.Manjunath et al. designed a kind of robust controller named RDPOF. They
conducted Euler-Bernoulli beam model with four elements in six vibration attenuated modes
[5]. In an empirical research, L.R.Karlmax et al. used feedback Intel 8061 output feedback
microcontroller in a smart structure, and they designed and controlled its vibrating control [6].
J.L.Fanson et al. experimentally designed a beam with piezoelectric using positive feedback
location [7]. W.Hwang et al. presented finite element model of piezoelectric actuator [8].
T.C.Manjunath et al. designed the best location for piezoelectric actuator and sensor to
achieve optimal attenuation in Euler-Bernoulli beam [9]. J.M.S.Moita et al. studied

comparative and active control of multilayer structures with piezoelectric [10]. M.R. Safizade
et al. studied the optimal place for a plate with all edges clumped by using controllability
gramian performance index and genetic algorithm. Structural equations of plate were
extracted analytically and were incorporated with analytical equations of piezoelectric
actuator and the equation of an intelligent structure was obtained. Then by using a controlling
method, the optimal placement of their system was conducted. In this method, the main
responsibility is system's controllability and expressing an optimum control input so that by
applying forces on this optimal place of structure, system, can be damped [11]. J. Yang et al.
in two researchers studied the optimal placement of piezoelectric sensor and actuator on a
plate. Their theory was that in order to increase the controlling performance of system or in
other words controlling the system by piezoelectric results in vibration suppression,
piezoelectric actuator should affect a specific direction on plate. Now there are coordinates on
the plate that show their potential effect by the placement of piezoelectric actuator and system
is controlled more efficiently. They used two types of Simulated Annealing for the TSP
(SATSP) algorithm and another algorithm called Hopfield-Tank for the TSP (HTTSP) to
optimize the place of plate. The results of SATSP optimization algorithm were better than
HTTSP. In this article, by using SATSP algorithm alongside Genetic Algorithm for TSP
(GATSP) algorithm, better results from GATSP were provided compared to SATTSP [12,
13]. V. Gupta et al. in a practical and helpful research used 6 objective functions for
optimizing the placement of piezoelectric as sensor and actuator on the structure of beam and
plate. These functions include [14]:
1) The maximization of force or torque released from piezoelectric actuator
2) The maximization of deflection in a structure
3) The minimization of controlling effect or the maximization of wasted energy
4) The maximization of controllability degree
5) The maximization of observability degree
6) The minimization of spillover phenomenon
M. Trajkov et al. analyzed the placement based on controllability and observability criteria.
The optimization was conducted based on H2 and H00 soft and controllability and
observability gramian function which is dependent on vibrational modes. The structure model
was designed using finite element and after the reduction of order process, optimization
operations were done on the reduced model and the optimal place was suggested for the plate
and cantilever beam [15]. F. Bachman et al. conducted a research on optimal placement of
two piezoelectric pieces on a turbo machinery blade which is a carbon / epoxy composite and
by using the criterion of increasing potential energy for piezoelectric and structure and
increasing electromechanical coupling damping coefficient, they tried to increase the energy
saved in piezoelectric in the best place of a composite blade [16]. J. Zhang et al. analyzed the
vibration suppression of a cantilever beam by finding the best place in that beam for the
placement of piezoelectric actuator and sensor in order to from an intelligent system for

automatically controlling of the vibration and reaching a logical stability. For system's
steering, they used Linear Quadratic Gauss (LQG) controller as an optimal controller method
and analyzed 4 vibration modes of beam [17]. A. Molter et al. studied the optimal placement
of piezoelectric on a flexible Manipulator as a cantilever beam with its mass concentrated on
top of the beam. They studied and controlled the beam based on Euler-Bernoulli theory
analytically and numerically. In addition to optimal placement, they optimized the size of
piezoelectric sensor and actuator in this model and their controlling method was done by
using Lyapunov function [18]. L. Nowak et al. proposed a method for calculating the optimal
place of piezoelectric sensor and actuator. Thin beam, thin plate and thin panel were tested as
structures with different boundary conditions under acoustic vibration. The dynamic analysis
of structure was conducted analytically [19]. G. Rosi et al. controlled the inactive released
sound on an aluminum plate with non-standard boundary conditions and by optimal
placement on it; they considered coordinates for locating piezoelectric pieces. Generally the
objective was reaching the best efficiency of this plate in reducing the released sound from it
[20]. A.H. Daraji et al. used an isotropic cantilever plate through finite element method in
ANSYS software by using 2 elements; element Solid45 for 3D meshing and element Shell63
for 2D meshing of plate. They also used element Solid45 for meshing piezoelectric sensor and
actuator pieces and prepared the model for controlling and by using Linear Quadratic
performance index (minimization) and genetic algorithm in MATLAB software, they were
able to relate these two software simultaneously in order to accelerate the vibration
suppression through the optimal placement of piezoelectric pieces and showed their results
[21]. J.M. Hale studied their placement by 10 piezoelectric pieces as sensors and actuators on
a cantilever plate. They used genetic algorithm for optimization of objective function.
Modeling method was in accord with first order shear theory and was conducted numerically
by finite element and Hamilton relationship. Their objective for optimal placement was
reaching the damping of first 6 vibrational modes of plate which were implemented
analytically by ANSYS software by using element Solid45 for 3D meshing and element
Shell63 for 2D meshing of plate and compared their results with finite element method.
Optimized objective function was modified by H2 soft in genetic algorithm to find the
optimal place [22]. Nemanja D. Zoric et al. tried to optimized the size and location of
piezoelectric on a thin composite beam by modeling finite elements based on the third order
shear deformation theory, using fuzzy logic combination and PSO optimization algorithm

for the optimal location on a cantilever beam and a plate with simply support. Their
optimization method was genetic binary algorithm and Linear Quadratic Gauss (LQG)
method. In this study, their optimization objective function was designed based on Lyapunov
function. During this research, they reached to this goal that optimal location in many first
modes that are considered as energetic modes can control the system and cover other
vibration modes. State variables, kinetic energy, strain energy and input voltage of actuator
are considered and considerable results were provided [24]. D. Chhabra et al. in their article
optimally located 10 piezoelectric actuators on a square plate with simply support by using
Modified Control Matrix and Singular Value Decomposition (MCSVD) method and genetic
algorithm and finally for vibration control, they used LQR controlling rule in order to
investigate the performance and efficiency of system and this way, they optimized and
controlled first 6 vibration modes in square plate [25]. F. Botta et al. suggested a new
objective function for optimal locating of piezoelectric. Optimization of the objective function
results in simultaneously damping of several vibration modes. Heir studied structure was a
cantilever beam with using Euler-Bernoulli theory. Their modeling of beam was done in two
ways; analytically and numerically and showed the conformity of these two methods. Also in
another article, they obtained experimental results from optimal placement of piezoelectric as
sensor and actuator on turbo machinery blades. They considered a turbo machinery blade as a
cantilever beam and then analytically solved the equation of beam coupled with piezoelectric
sensor and actuator and presented their theoretical and experimental results. Their objective
was to reduce vibration and fatigue of the beam [26].
A.L. Araujo et al. conducted the optimal placement of piezoelectric on a Sandwich plate with
viscoelastic core and multi-layered procedure by using DMM optimization method. Because
of this research, they were able to analyze the vibration suppression of sandwich plate by
finding the best place and by analyzing 6 vibration modes. They found considerable results
[27]. S. Wrona et al. in two different articles used local directional controllability theory to
find the optimal place for piezoelectric sensor and actuator. Their studied structure was
isotropic square plate with four sides clamped. They used Memetic algorithm to optimize the
controllability index. Memetic algorithm has a proper performance due to faster convergence
and better statistical solution [28-29]. A.Takezawa et al. proposed an optimization methodology for

piezoelectric actuator by using neural network [38]. J.Plattenburg et al. investigated vibration control
cylindrical shell with piezo-patches and disturbuted cardboard liner[39]. B.A.Selim et al. designed
CNT-reinforced composite plates and cylindrical shells with Reddy’s higher shear deformation and
using piezoelectric layers [40]. In this study, a cantilever beam is modeled using Timoshenko
Theory and finite element numerical method. Then, cantilever beam was divided into 20
elements and piezoelectric sensor and actuator patches are embedded at the bottom and the
top of the element. Then, control process for attenuation and transverse vibration control of
the beam against Random, White Noise, Random Integer, Random Binary inputs was done.
For structure control against these movements, Fuzzy-PID controller and Multi-Objective

In finite element method, there are different methods to describe each element by using shape functions. For a
hypothetical element such as Figure (5), we used a 2-node element in its beginning and end, each of which has
degrees of freedom including angular and transverse.
Shape function for an element is defined as follows:
Where q is defined as displacement vector for nodes of one element according to Figure (4). Each coefficients of
q are function matrices that are completely in accordance with boundary conditions of the cantilever beam [33].

mechanical properties of piezoelectric should be replaced according to Table 4.
3. Piezoelectric Electromechanical Model
As shown in Figure 2, we divide a cantilever beam into nodes or grids through finite elements. The greater the
number of nodes is, the more accurate the computations and design analysis will be. Now assume beam of
Figure 2 is similar to Figure 5. Then, piezoelectric actuator and sensor are respectively supposed to be placed on
the top and bottom beam on one of the divided elements. The mechanism of piezoelectric patch is in a way that it
would sense each element on which the piezoelectric sensor is embedded by vibration and angular and transverse
displacement, and convert it into current using the equation (24). In this paper, electromechanical model is
designed as Figure 5, i.e. piezoelectric sensor and actuator element is placed in the second element and then
Fuzzy-PID controller is designed based on this model [46].

In this paper, a cantilever beam with a uniform rectangular cross-section based on Timoshenko theory was
divided into 20 elements, as shown in Figure 1. As shown in Figure 4, each node has two degrees of
freedom. Now, consider a pair of piezoelectric sensor and actuator as shown in Figure 5. That means the
length of piezoelectric patch is equal to the length of each element of the beam. On the other hand,

piezoelectric sensor and actuator are the only producers of torque at each node to reduce volatility of the
structure, as shown in Figure 6. Now, we displace the piezoelectric sensor and actuator patches so that they
would be embedded on the bottom and top of the beam, respectively. The best element of beam along with
the best coefficients of PID controller and 36 parameters of membership functions of fuzzy trigonometric
are detected by multi-objective genetic algorithms in a way that logic conditions of the controller are not
violated and structure vibration control is adopted. As can be seen in Figures 16, 19, 22, and 25,
piezoelectric optimum location for different inputs is at the end of almost the last element of the beam. This
indicates that piezoelectric optimum location for the inputs and incoming forces is the part of the beam with
the most displacement.

Conclusion:
This study attempted to automatically control a cantilever beam model from external stimulations by
piezoelectric and conduct vibration attenuation in system. Due to wide use of industrial PID controller and using
fuzzy calculations, smart control of the beam occurred. Using finite element method, system equations were
designed in MATLAB Software. Then, by embedding fuzzy PID controller attenuated the system. Here, it has
been attempted to stimulate the system with variety of inputs so that fuzzy PID controller design verification
would be reliable.
