A fuzzy logic based digital time domain sinusoidal acceleration waveform amplitude controller for an electrodynamic shaker is presented. The purpose of Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) is to reproduce a pre-defined sinusoidal acceleration amplitude profile (in amplitude, frequency and time) at the shaker table. Sinusoidal vibration profiles (sine and logarithmic sine sweep) are considered for a controlled vibration generation in typical automotive and aerospace testing. The difficulty in sine sweep testing is that the non-rigid load dynamics are unknown and it can severely modify the shaker’s performance during sweep test. Since a logarithmic frequency sweep is normally used, a controller needs to be robust to un-modeled dynamics and also fast enough to hold the desired acceleration amplitude within predefined limits throughout the sweep test. The controller structure is developed based on the usual power amplifier …
