Abstract
- In this paper, the dynamic equation of a rigid body coupled with two flexible beams was established, considering the rotational motion of the rigid body and the elastic deflection of the flexible beams. The coupling effect between the rigid body rotation and flexible beam vibration was studied in detail. The dynamic response of the flexible beam with piezoelectric effect was established based on Hamilton’s principle. Under the premise of ignoring the nonlinear vibration coupling term of flexible beams, only the first two modes of transverse displacement and one directional rotation motion were studied in case studies. It was found that the coupling term caused by rigid body rotation can slightly alter the natural frequency and amplitude of flexible beams, mainly reflected in the first-order mode. With increasing the external excitation on the rigid body, the induced transverse displacement at the tip of the flexible beam increased significantly. Meanwhile, when the flexible beam was under external excitation, the vibration could also induce rigid body rotation. With the inverse piezoelectric effect, one may actively actuate the flexible beam vibration and rigid body rotation or control the undesired motion of the system. The control effect can be adjusted by varying the applied voltage excitation on the piezoelectric patches as well as patch positions. The conclusions drawn from this study can be applied to active precise control of space facilities such as satellites. Based on the dynamic modeling of rigid–flexible multi-body systems, this paper completed the study of the coupling effects of rigid body rotation and flexible body vibration, and proposed an application idea for completing small-angle maneuvers of rigid–flexible multi-body systems through piezoelectric control.
