**Stewart Platform** (Figure [1](#org4317d08)):
|
|
|
|
- Voice Coil
|
|
- Flexible joints (cross-blades)
|
|
- Force Sensors
|
|
- Cubic Configuration

Total mass of the paylaod: 30kg
|
|
Center of gravity is 9cm above the geometry center of the mount (cube's center?).
|
|
|
|
Limitation of the **Decentralized Force Feedback**:
|
|
|
|
- high frequency pole due to internal resonances of the struts
|
|
- low frequency zero due to the rotational stiffness of the flexible joints
|
|
|
|
After redesign of the struts:
|
|
|
|
- high frequency pole at 4.7kHz
|
|
- low frequency zero at 2.6Hz but non-minimum phase (not explained).
|
|
Small viscous damping material in the cross blade flexures made the zero minimum phase again.

|
|
The controller used consisted of:
|
|
|
|
- second order low pass filter to gain stabilize the plant at high frequencies and provide steep roll-off
|
|
- first order lead filter to provide adequate phase margin at the high frequency crossover
|
|
- first order lag filter to provide adequate phase margin at the low frequency crossover
|
|
- a first order high pass filter to attenuate the excess gain resulting from the low frequency zero
|
|
|
|
The results in terms of transmissibility are shown in Figure [3](#orgf128817).
