Vibration Control in Cricket Bats using Piezoelectric-based Smart Materials A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Jia Long Cao. MEng (RMIT University) School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacture Engineering RMIT University Melbourne, Australia. August 2006 Declaration i Declaration I hereby declare that a. The work presented in this thesis is that of my own except where acknowledged to others, and has not been submitted previously, in whole or in part, in respect of any academic award. b. The work of this research program has been carried out since the official commencement date of the program approved. Acknowledgements ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my senior supervisor, Associate Professor Sabu John, for his guidance and tremendous support during my PhD study. His generous help, substantial information and regular encouragement always kept me on track and was the key to my completion. I felt fortunate to have the opportunity to work under his supervision. I would also like to thank my second supervisor, Dr. Tom Molyneaux, for his excellent technical advice, invaluable knowledge and great help. Thirdly, I would like to thank our industry partners, Kevin Davidson from Davidson Measurement and Peter Thompson from Kookaburra Sport, for their financial contribution and great interest in the project, their precious time spent on our regular meetings and materials contributed to the project. In addition, I would like to thank our lab and workshop technicians, Peter Tkatchyk and Terry Rosewarne, for their generous and friendly help with my experiments and products prototyping, otherwise, I would have had a lot of troubles. Finally, I would like to thank the Australia Research Council (ARC) for the funding of the project and the scholarship which supported my graduate study. iii Table of Contents Declaration …...……………………………….………...…………...…...……….…...…... i Acknowledgements .……………………………………………………………..…...……. ii Table of Contents ...………………………………….…………………...……….…..…… iii Abstract …………...………………………………………………………………...…..…. xiv List of Symbols …………...……………………………………………………………….. xv Chapter 1 Introduction.…………..……….………..……..……..…………….….…... 1 1.1 Motivation ...…...….………...……………………………………….....…...…. 1 1.2 Vibration control with Smart materials ……...……………..……....………….. 2 1.3 The objectives of this study ...………………....……………………..…..….…. 3 1.4 The organization of the thesis ………..……...………………………….....…... 4 1.5 Publications originated from this research ...………………………….....…….. 6 Chapter 2 Literature Review: Mechanical Vibration Control ...….…..…..…… 7 2.1 Background of the Cricket bat ……………..…………….…....….…...………. 8 2.2 Traditional mechanical vibration control techniques .….....….…....…………... 11 2.2.1 Vibration isolation …...………………………………...……….……….. 11 2.2.2 Vibration absorption …...………………………………...…….……….. 12 2.2.3 Vibration damping …...…………………………………....…….……… 13 2.2.3.1 Viscoelastic damping …...…………………….…………...……. 13 2.2.3.2 Structural damping …...……………………..….…………...…... 16 2.3 Non-conventional vibration control with Smart material components..…...…... 16 2.3.1 Smart material and structure ..……………...……………...…….……… 16 2.3.2 Piezoelectric materials ..…………………....……………...…….……… 18 2.3.2.1 Orientation and notation …...………….…………………...…… 22 2.3.2.2 Piezoelectric constitute equations ………………………………. 23 2.3.2.3 Modelling of piezoelectric transducer ………………………….. 26 2.3.3 Passive piezoelectric vibration shunt control …………...…………….… 26 iv 2.3.4 Active piezoelectric vibration control ……..…………...……….………. 36 2.3.5 Power system for active piezoelectric vibration control ……...………… 40 2.3.6 Advantages and disadvantages of passive and active piezoelectric controls ………………………………………………………………….. 42 2.4 Chapter summary………….……...……………………………………...…….. 43 Chapter 3 Analytical Modelling of Passive Piezoelectric Vibration Shunt on Beams …..…...……………………………………..……...…………...… 45 3.1 Motion equation derivation of composite beam using energy method ………... 46 3.1.1 Euler-Bernoulli beam model …………………………...…………...…... 46 3.1.2 Displacement, strain, stress and velocity relations ……………………… 47 3.1.3 Potential energy ……………………………………………….………… 49 3.1.4 Kinetic energy ………………………...……………………….………... 51 3.1.5 Hamilton’s principle ……………………………………………….……. 52 3.2 Convert partial differential equations (PDE) to ordinary differential equations (ODE) using Galerkin’s method ……….…………………………… 55 3.3 Vibration control with the piezoelectric shunt circuit …………..……….....…. 57 3.3.1 Series R-L shunt ………………………..…………………………...…... 57 3.3.2 Parallel R-L shunt ………………………………….…………….…..… 62 3.4 Numerical examples …………………….………………………...……..…..… 66 3.4.1 Vibration shunt control simulation 1 (PZT placed at L/2).……………… 67 3.4.2 Vibration shunt control simulation 2 (PZT placed at L/4)…….…..…..… 70 3.4.3 Sensitivity test of control frequency mismatch………………………..… 71 3.5 Chapter summary ……………..…….…………………………………..….….. 76 Chapter 4 Composite Beam Analysis and Design ……………………………..…. 77 4.1 Stress and strain in composite beam ...…………………….……………......…. 77 4.2 Parameters of the two-layer piezoelectric composite beam …………………… 80 4.2.1 Neutral surface location ………………………….……………………... 80 4.2.2 Area moment of inertia ……………….………….……………………... 85 4.2.3 Average normal strain and stress ………….….……….………………... 90 4.3 Discussion of composite beam design for maximizing strain in the PZT ……... 94 v 4.3.1 The relation between electrical field and mechanical strain in the PZT ... 94 4.3.2 Analytical precursor to the strain analysis in the PZT Patch …….…….. 99 4.3.3 Comparison of FEA simulation results of piezoelectric vibration shunt control for beams with different materials ……………….………….…. 104 4.3.4 Application of the PZT-composite beam technology and analysis of the handle of the Cricket bat -
