This book aims at investigating PDE modeling and vibration control of some typical mechanical distributed parameter systems. Several control methods are proposed to realize stabilization of the closed-loop system with the help of mathematical tools and stability analysis methods. Besides, some common engineering problems, such as input and output constraints, are also involved in the control design. This book offers a comprehensive introduction of mechanical distributed parameter systems, including PDE modeling, controller design and stability analysis. The related fundamental mathematical tools and analytical approaches involving in the PDE modeling and controller are also provided, which broadens its reach to readers.

Introduces novel advanced mechanical distributed parameter systems, such as moving vehicle-mounted flexible manipulators and three-dimensional length-varying flexible strings Discusses different control algorithms, such as LMI-based control, quantized control, and switching fault-tolerant control, in order to resolve common practical engineering problems Provides stability analysis for the proposed control methods with simulation verification
