摘要
In this paper we discuss a suboptimal method of approximating a desired deflection curve of a simple beam by a given number of force actuators. The spacing between the actuators is allowed to vary as a function of the deflection curve. The method is applied to an example of approximation of a deflection curve of the slice lip on a paper machine headbox for the control of the basis weight profile of paper. The approximation error with variable spacing is compared with that obtained when the spacing is not varied (uniformly-spaced actuators). Significant reduction in error is observed.
