“…Lightly damped vibrating structures or, as they are often referred to flexible systems, can be regarded as a specific engineering problem in active vibration control and are treated as such in numerous academic works [2,3,6,15,16,26,32,38,41,46,53,54,63,80,87]. The laboratory device considered in this work is also a lightly damped flexible system and it consists of a clamped beam with a free end which is equipped with actuators and sensors to form an active structure.…”
