Description/Abstract
Active vibration isolation systems are less commonly used than passive systems due to their associated cost and power requirements. In principle, semi-active isolation systems can deliver the versatility, adaptability and higher performance of fully active systems for a fraction of the power consumption. Various semi-active control algorithms have been suggested in the past, many of which are of the "on–off" variety. This paper studies the vibration isolation characteristics of four established semi-active damping control strategies, which are based on skyhook control and balance control. A semi-active damper is incorporated into a single-degree-of-freedom (s.d.o.f.) system model subject to base excitation. Its performance is evaluated in terms of the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) acceleration transmissibility, and is compared with those of a passive damper and an ideal skyhook damper. The results show that the semi-active system always provides better isolation at higher frequencies than a conventional passively damped system.
