Abstract

This paper deals with passive vibration damping of piezoactuated elastic structures. An enhanced resonant shunt electric circuit, which is a generalization of the shunt circuits proposed in the literature until now, is analyzed from a theoretical point of view. A modal model is used to evaluate the performances of this shunt in damping structural vibrations; in particular, a numerical optimization of the electrical components is performed according to the pole placement technique. It is shown that the new circuit presented here is able to partially improve the performances of the shunt circuits previously proposed in the literature.
