Open Access Theses
Impacting systems are encountered frequently in nature, and often in mechanical systems. Impacts can be undesirable in some applications, and desirable and deliberate in others. A subset of impacting systems are vibro&ndashimpact systems, wherein the impacts arise during vibrations or oscillatory behavior. Considering their potential prominence in a number of day&ndashto&ndashday applications, such vibro&ndashimpact systems have become the subject of extensive research in the past few decades. A significant number of these studies have been specifically aimed at controlling vibro&ndashimpact systems. To date, a wide variety of control algorithms have been proposed, a subset of which account for the effects …
