Abstract
In this paper, a modern, reinforcement learning-based semi-active vibration control strategy is presented. Three different reinforcement learning algorithms are used to determine the control of the vibration process of a cantilever beam modeled as a system of two rigid links connected by a rotational spring. The control is achieved by blocking the connections between the links. This effect is achieved by introducing an equivalent rotational viscous damper.
The obtained control signals are compared with the instantaneous optimal control, which greedily transfers the vibration energy from one mode to another. The quality of the control signal obtained using reinforcement learning confirms the ability of such algorithms to obtain results consistent with the analytical solution.
