Abstract

Purpose

An experimental–numerical study of an inverted pendulum system to control a reduced model of a main system is developed in this work.

Method

Initially, a dynamic system model with one degree of freedom (1DoF) translational in the horizontal direction is analyzed. To this system is coupled a passive control device in the geometry of a tuned mass damper inverted pendulum (TMD-IP). Different TMD-IP configurations are analyzed. The theoretical formulation adopted for free and forced vibration analysis is presented. Subsequently, an experimental bench composed of a reduced model with 1DoF, an TMD-IP and a dynamic exciter is designed and constructed. The data acquisition is performed via video techniques. A sensitivity analysis is performed, as well as an optimization, with the intention of finding the optimal parameters for the TMD-IP.

Results

Experimental and numerical analyses are performed on free vibration as well as forced vibration. Comparison of the results obtained showed a good agreement.

Conclusions

The TMD-IP showed to be a good solution reducing the main system horizontal vibrations.
