Nonlinear vibration control with nanocapacitive sensor for electrostatically actuated nanobeam

Abstract

The model of a clamped-clamped Euler-Bernoulli beam is presented in order to study nonlinear vibration control of electrostatically actuated nanobeam with nanocapacitive sensor, considering primary and superharmonic resonances. The capacitance of nanobeam capacitor changes with the nanobeam deformation. The nanocapacitive sensor is applied to extract vibration signals and to transform enlarged signals into controller to control nanobeam vibrations. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain the first-order approximate solutions and derive the amplitude-frequency equation. The nonlinear vibration characteristics and amplitude-frequency response of nanobeam vibration system are studied under different excitation voltage, feedback gains, and damping. The relationships between amplitude and system parameters are discussed in detail. The presented analytical and numerical simulations show that dynamic response of nanobeam is stable when the appropriate parameters are chosen. This investigation provides a better understanding of the nonlinear vibration of nanoelectromechanical systems devices based on nanobeam.

“…Liu et al [18] presented an ideal deferred feedback control technique for suppressing the nonlinear vibration of an elastic beam with the actuator and piezoelectric sensor. Gong et al [19] examined the effects of feedback gains, excitation voltage, and damping on the nonlinear vibration properties and amplitude-frequency response of a nanobeam vibrational system. Rezaee and Lotfan [20] evidently expressed that the variation occurring in the axial speed has influence on the slope of "frequencyresponse" curvatures, when the small-scale effects of axially moving nanoscale beams were considered.…”

He–Laplace method for nonlinear vibration systems and nonlinear wave equations

“…In most cases, these vibration phenomena arise from a large number of factors such as electric field force, nonlinear damping, and large elastic deformation. 1 Thus, a better understanding of the nonlinear vibration systems is essential for the study of vibration phenomena. Let the following variables: i is the current, u is the potential, L is the inductance, C is the capacitance, R is the resistance, and G is the leakage conductance.…”

Vibration power flow characteristics of the whole-spacecraft with a nonlinear energy sink

“…Nonlinear designs are proposed for attenuating broad frequency vibration energy transmitting to the primary system by introducing nonlinear elements. 9,10 As an essentially nonlinear local attachment, the nonlinear energy sink (NES) is a powerful vibration absorber without obviously changing the natural frequencies of systems. [11][12][13][14][15] Vakakis et al 16 discovered the important phenomenon of targeted energy transfer, in which the vibrational energy from a linear system is directly transferred to a passive NES in an irreversible manner.…”
