Position Fuzzy Control for a Two-Axis Shaking Table based on Slider-Crank Mechanism
Abstract
Different mechanisms have been designed to generate vibratory motion to test the evaluation of seismic control systems to be used in structural buildings. These systems are called "shaking-tables" and they are usually designed with linear actuators which facilitate the implementation of classical control systems for its proper operation. This paper presents a position fuzzy control system designed to control the displacement behavior of earthquakes on the shaking-table based on a slider-crank mechanism. The results show repeatability greater than 97%, adequate to the validation of anti-seismic controllers on small-scale models.
