| Summary: | In this study, we created an accurate model for a homogenous smart structure. After modeling multiplicative uncertainty, an ideal robust controller was designed using <i>μ</i>-synthesis and a reduced-order H-infinity Feedback Optimal Output (Hifoo) controller, leading to the creation of an improved uncertain plant. A powerful controller was built using a larger plant that included the nominal model and corresponding uncertainty. The designed controllers demonstrated robust and nominal performance when handling agitated plants. A comparison of the results was conducted. As an example of a general smart structure, the vibration of a collocated piezoelectric actuator and sensor was controlled using two different approaches with strong controller designs. This study presents a comprehensive simulation of the oscillation suppression problem for smart beams. They provide an analytical demonstration of how uncertainty is introduced into the model. The desired outcomes were achieved by utilizing Simulink and MATLAB (v. 8.0) programming tools.
