A general vibration control methodology for human‐induced vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesStructural Control and Health Monitoring, 2019
This paper proposes a general methodology for the design of vibration control of human-induced vibrations. This uses a feedback loop for the design of control parameters and accounts for the nature of human excitation and how humans feel the vibration.
