(c) (d) Fig. 5 Uncontrolled and controlled responses to walking excitation as well as actuator force and point accelerance frequency response functions (FRFs) for IMSC design 2 5 RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Tables 1 and 2 demonstrate the vibration mitigation performances of the two IMSC controller structures outlined in section 1.4. The benefits of the IMSC controller design technique in meeting the desired vibration mitigation performances can clearly be seen from these results. Table 1.
