The finite element dynamic model for integrated structures containing distr
ibuted piezoelectric sensors and actuators ( S/As ) is formulated with a ne
w piezoelectric plate bending element in this paper. The problem of active
vibration control and suppression of integrated structures is investigated
under constant gain negative velocity feedback control law. A general metho
d for active vibration control and suppression of integrated structures is
presented. Finally, numerical example is given to illustrate the validity o
f the method proposed in this paper.
