Active control of dynamic behaviors of graded graphene reinforced cylindrical shells with piezoelectric actuator/sensor layers
2020
Abstract This work investigates the active vibration control and vibration characteristics of a sandwich thin cylindrical shell whose intermediate layer is made of the graphene reinforced composite that is bonded with integrated piezoelectric actuator and sensor layers at its outer and inner surfaces. The volume fraction of graphene platelets in the intermediate layer varies continuously in the shell's thickness direction, which generates position-dependent effective material properties. The constitutive relations of the graphene reinforced composite and piezoelectric materials are given by taking one-dimensional steady thermal field into account. Considering Donnell's shell theory, a final equation of motion in terms of the generalized radial displacement is derived by using Hamilton's principle and Galerkin method. Shell's natural frequencies are derived considering influences of the thermo-electro-elastic field. Introducing a constant velocity feedback control algorithm, active vibration control of the sandwich cylindrical shell is presented by employing the Runge-Kutta method. The feedback control gain has a pronounced effect on the damping, as well as the inertia of the system. Comparisons between the present results and those in other papers are done to validate the present solutions. Influences of weight fractions, distribution patterns and geometrical sizes of graphene platelets, temperature variations, thicknesses of layers and the feedback control gain on the vibration characteristics and active vibration control behaviors of the novel sandwich cylindrical shell are discussed.
