Analysis of energy flow in controlled structures subject to initial conditions

This work investigates power flow and energy transfer in controlled structures. If the goal of control is to stop an initially vibrating structure, energy must be forced out through dissipating components. The analysis performed here quantifies energy being transferred internally and externally to d...
