In this article the constitutive equation of an Euler-Bernoulli beam, excited by multiple moving masses is considered. A set of multiple piezo-ceramic actuators is used to harness the dynamic response of the beam. In this regard the beam response is suppressed by utilizing a linear control algorithm with a time varying gain matrix and displacement-velocity feedback. The efficiency of the results is investigated through the numerical analysis of an example problem  

In this paper the dual synchronization of chaotic systems via output feedback strategy is investigated. The slave chaotic systems are fed by a scalar signal generated by a linear combination of the master systems state variables. The sufficient condition and design procedure for dual synchronization are presented. The proposed method is applied for dual synchronization of the Lorenz-Rossler, Rossler-Chen and Duffing-Van der Pol chaotic systems through computer simulation. The results show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved  

Multi-synchronization of chaotic systems based on the master-slave scheme as an extension of the dual synchronization problem is introduced. It is assumed that the only information available from the master systems is a linear combination of their state vectors. The design procedure for multi-synchronization through output feedback strategy is described and the sufficient condition is given. The performance of the proposed algorithm is numerically examined by applying it to the Chen-Lorenz-Rossler and the Duffing-Van der Pol chaotic systems. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
