Abstrakt: This paper presents a method for actively controlling torsional vibrations in rotating machines caused by angle-dependent parameters. The work is motivated by rotating machines with crank or cam gear mechanisms that cause fluctuations in the angular speed when the machine is driven by a constant load torque or when the speed is controlled with conventional controllers. A very general model for such a system is introduced and used to derive a control law by feedback linearization. With this control law, the speed fluctuations are completely eliminated and desired linear dynamics can be prescribed for the system. The method is tested in a simulation study with a model of a real industrial machine. Although the proposed method works well, the study is preliminary in the sense that the method has not been applied experimentally and its robustness has not been assessed. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
