This study outlines a comprehensive strategy for designing and implementing robust controllers tailored for intelligent structures. This study presents a robust control-based structural identification technique that uses the input/output data of the system to construct a state-space mode and frequency domain. To reduce vibrations, a robust controller is created using the control Simulink model. The identification and robust control of smart structures using Simulink involve a combination of system identification techniques and control design within the MATLAB Simulink environment. The key challenge is dealing with uncertainties and variations in system dynamics. Robust control methods have been employed to suppress the vibrations during dynamic disturbances. These methods are important for mechanical systems operating under stochastic loading conditions.
