This book presents theoretical explorations of several fundamental problems in the dynamics and control of flexible beam systems. By integrating fresh concepts and results to form a systematic approach to control, it establishes a basic theoretical framework. It includes typical control design examples verified using MATLAB simulation, which in turn illustrate the successful practical applications of active vibration control theory for flexible beam systems. The book is primarily intended for researchers and engineers in the control system and mechanical engineering community, offering them a unique resource.

“The book is well written. The references to important works are given. Solutions using MATLAB are presented in detail. The book should be of interest to practicing and research engineers as well as Ph.D. students in the area of modeling and control of flexible beam systems.” (Abbes Benaissa r, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2025)
