This paper presents the development of an interactive learning environment for dynamic simulation and active vibration control of flexible plate structures. The work is aimed to facilitate the learning process of the subject area through the development of an interactive environment that can help users to simulate and visualise behaviour of flexible structures with given physical characteristics, to test and validate controller designs. Simulation algorithms based on finite difference scheme in characterizing the dynamic behaviour of a two-dimensional such as plate structures are incorporated. Controller design strategies are integrated within this framework. The design and implementation of the interactive learning system incorporating the simulation algorithms, modelling and control strategies, are developed using Matlab. The result of the simulation is further utilized in the modelling and control of the specified flexible plate structure.
