This paper investigates the vibration control of an elastic beam with nonlinear boundary conditions using Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) actuators and an adaptive control strategy. This system is known as a chaotic system under external sinusoidal applied force. The beam is clamped at one end, and the other end is pinned for the tip displacements less than a fixed value and is free for displacements greater than this value. For certain values of forcing frequency and amplitude the periodic motion becomes unstable and non-periodic, bounded vibration results. Meanwhile, for control purposes an auto-tuning Ziegler-Nichols PID controller is implemented in order to investigate the robustness and vibration suppression performance of the closed-loop system. Finally, numerical simulations evaluate the effectiveness of this control strategy.
