This article studies a vibration and disturbance rejection problem of a wind turbine tower under exogenous perturbations. The tower dynamics is captured by a nonhomogeneous Euler-Bernoulli beam model. The dissipativity of the system is realized by a boundary feedback control solution with a multival...
