The vibration of a beam embedded with piezoelectric inclusions

Active vibration control using smart materials has attracted more and more attentions in recent years. In the present project, the dynamic response of a beam embedded with arrays of piezoelectric actuators/sensors is investigated. The analytical model is based on Hamilton's Variational Principl...
