This thesis created an analytical model for active vibration control of the NPS space truss using ANSYS. The NPS space truss is a 3.7-meter long truss that simulates a space-borne appendage with sensitive equipment at its extremities. With the use of a dSPACE data acquisition and processing system, quartz force transducer and piezoelectric actuator, active controls using an integral plus double integral control law were used to damp out the vibrations caused by a linear proof mass actuator. Vibration reductions on the order of 15- 20 dB were obtained with experiment. The ANSYS finite element model used SOLIDS elements to model the piezoelectric characteristics and ANSYS Parametric Design Language to provide for an iterative approach to an active controls analysis. Comparative data runs were performed with the ANSYS model to determine its similarity to experiment. The analytical model produced power reductions of 18- 22 (B, demonstrating the ability to model the control authority with a finite element model. This technique can be used and modified to enhance its flexibility to many types of controls and vibration reduction applications. An analytical model for active control of the NPS space truss using MATLAB/Simulink was also developed as an alternative to the ANSYS model.
