Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
To address the power challenge of conventional active control, the H-bridge circuit-based electromagnetic damper (HB-EMD) was recently proposed. Its self-powering feasibility has been validated in the previous study showing the actively controlled HB-EMD ...
