Introduction
The reduction of structural vibration has been challenging
engineers for many years. Innumerable applications exist
where vibration control is beneficial, if not essential.
In the control of vibrations, the damping ratio is an
important data since it indicates how quickly the vibrations
decrease. When control of vibrations is at stake, it can be
useful to control this parameter. Works have already been
achieved to this end [1].
This article proposes a method in the frequency-domain to
control uncertain plants while ensuring the damping ratio of
the response. This method is based on the complex
fractional order integration [2] that is used in two goals:
(i) the definition of a contour called iso-damping contour
[3] whose graduation is the damping ratio in the Nichols
plane,
(ii) the definition of an open-loop transfer function [5]
whose part of the Nichols locus is an any-direction straight
line segment that can tangent a Nichols contour or an isodamping contour defined above.
The article falls into 4 parts. Section 1 introduces the
transfer function of a complex non-integer integrator
defining a generalized template which will be considered as
part of an open-loop Nichols locus [5]. This transfer
function is used in section 2 for the construction in the
Nichols plane of a network of iso-damping contours [3,4].
Section 3 describes the CRONE (the French acronym of
"Commande Robuste d'Ordre Non Entier") control based on
complex fractional order differentiation [6]. This control
methodology can be applied to SISO and MIMO plants and
also plants with lightly damped modes. The interest of the
fractional order is to define a transfer function with few
parameters and thus to simplify design and optimization of
the control system.
Section 4 presents an example of multivariable flexible
structure which is an aircraft wing model made of a freeclamped beam with a water tank and co-localized
piezoelectric ceramics used as actuators to limit the
vibrations and as sensors to measure these vibrations. The
different levels of filling of the tank make it possible to test
the robustness of the damping ratio obtained with the
CRONE control design associated to iso-damping contours.

As mentioned above the aim of CRONE control for MIMO
plants is to find a decoupling controller for the nominal
plant. G0 being not diagonal, the problem is to find a
decoupling and stabilizing controller C [10]. This controller
exists if and only if the following hypotheses are true:
-
- H 1 : [G0 ( s ) ]1 exist ,
(22)
- H 2 : Z + [G0 ( s )] P+ [G0 ( s )] = 0 ,

Lets now take into account the lightly damped modes of the
plant. There are no lightly damped modes on the rows of the
plant but there are some lightly damped modes in the
columns of the inverse matrix of the plant coming from the

The figure 8 shows the free response to a perturbation if
there is no control and in the case of an empty tank. This

Conclusion
This article presents fractional robust control with isodamping property. The plant under study is an aircraft wing
model with a water tank. It is a multivariable plant with
lighted damped modes. The proposed methodology is
CRONE control. Results show that the vibrations are better
damped with the CRONE control and that the time to go
back to balance is divided by a factor 10. The tests on the
plant with various levels of filling of the tank made it
possible to highlight the properties of robustness of the
damping ratio. The use of multivariable CRONE
methodology and of iso-damping contours to carry out the
control of a flexible structure with iso-damping property is
thus clearly relevant.
