A new mathematical model for the control effort is proposed and optimized with two objective functions. Conflicting objectives are considered as the displacement of the beam and the second derivative of the control voltage. The coefficients of the proposed control voltage model are regarded as the design variables for this optimization process. The corresponding Pareto front represents non-dominated optimum solutions with different choices to designers. The time behaviors of displacement, velocity and acceleration as well as the related control effort at the midpoint of the beam for three optimum design points are illustrated. The simulation of the time responses of a selected optimum point exhibits the advantage of the planned optimum strategy with regard to those stated in some research such as the cases used in the maximum principle for the same structure.
