An experimental investigation into active damage control systems using positive position feedback for AVC

This work discusses the use of Positive Position Feedback (PPF) for Active Vibration Control as part of an Active Damage Control System (ADCS). Vibration control increases the fatigue life of a structure and decreases the in-plane stresses that can cause delamination in a composite. PPF is a colloca...
