Abstract: | The increasing demand for high-speed performance and low energy consumption has necessitated the design of lightweight mechanical
systems. The active vibration suppression of a flexible manipulator is important in many engineering applications, such as
robot manipulators and high-speed flexible mechanisms, because the flexibility of lightweight manipulators induces a vibration
problem. Frequently, the optimal parameters determined for a certain control algorithm might not cover a wide range of operating
conditions. Hence, we have proposed and developed a lookup table control method for a flexible manipulator that can tune itself
to optimal parameters on the basis of the initial maximum responses of the controlled system and a genetic algorithm. The
genetic algorithm is used to search for optimal parameters with regard to positive position feedback and thereby minimizes
the objective functions determined from the initial maximum responses. Our lookup table, which has the optimal parameters
of the positive position feedback as a function of the initial maximum responses, can be used in a real-time control algorithm.

Nam Seo Goo graduated from the Department of Aeronautics Engineering of Seoul National University with honors in 1990, and got master
and Ph.D. degrees in Department of Aerospace Engineering at the same university in 1992 and 1996, respectively. His Ph.D.
degree was on the structural dynamics of aerospace systems. As soon as he got a Ph.D. degree, he entered the agency for defense
development as a Senior Researcher. After four years’ service, he joined Department of Aerospace Engineering in Konkuk University,
Seoul, Korea in 2002, currently serving an Associate Professor of Department of Advanced Technology Fusion. His current research
interests are structural dynamics of small systems, smart structure and material, and MEMS applications.
