The main objectives of this study are to examine the random responses of a vibration absorber system with autoparametric coupling in the neighborhood of internal resonance subjected to narrow band random excitation by Gaussian closure scheme and to compare the results with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo simulation is found to support the main features of the nonlinear modal interaction in the neighborhood of internal resonance conditions. The jump phenomenon of the cantilever mode and saturation phenomenon of the main system are shown to occur if the excitation bandwidth is sufficiently small.

This study is a research on the dynamic characteristics of non-linear dynamic vibration absorber in which harmonic motion is applied to the foundation of the main system. The amplitude ratio of the system with non-linear dynamic vibration absorber was obtained by harmonic balance methods and the unstable region was determined by stability analysis. As a result of study, the amplitude ratio decreases as mass ratio increases.

In modern surveillance equipment, infrared (IR) sensors are essential for detection and observation. The IR sensor is connected to a miniature cryogenic cooler to maintain the temperature at very low levels, i.e., temperatures as low as 77 K. However, the quality of the image captured by the sensor is degraded by the transmission of vibration disturbances from the cooler. Therefore, to maintain high image quality, the compressor vibration and the force transmitted to the sensor have to be mitigated. For the compressor vibration isolating system, a tuned dynamic vibration absorber, combined with a passive isolator, is proposed. A cryogenic compressor bracket and springs are designed to allow the absorber mass to mitigate the vibration jitter in the axial direction. The system design is analyzed and evaluated in terms of the dynamic suppression of the harmonic force at the operating frequency of the cooler.

This research is concerned with development of the passive-active vibration absorber using piezoelectric actuators. This active-passive isolation system consists of 4-pairs of PZT actuators bonded on accordion type of mounting bracket and a spring-damper located in center. Hence, the active system is connected in parallel to the passive system. In this paper, we discuss the dynamic characteristics of the addressed system. Based on the series of experiment, it is found that the proposed system can cope with the external disturbances. The controller design is currently under investigation.

The main objectives of this study are to examine the random response of a vibration absorber system with autoparametric coupling in the neighborhood of internal resonance by Gaussian closure and to compare the results with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. The numerical simulation is found to support the main features of the nonlinear modal interaction in the neighborhood of internal resonance conditions. While the Gaussian closure exhibits regions of multiple solutions in the neighborhood of internal resonance, the numerical simulation gives only one solution depending on the assigned initial conditions. The on-off intermittency phenomena of the cantilever mode is observed in the Monte Carlo simulation over a small range of parameter.

In this paper, an adaptively tuned dynamic absorber is proposed. The adaptively tuned dynamic absorber is a dynamic absorber whose stiffness is tuned so that the natural frequency of the absorber coincides with the operating or natural frequency estimated by an adaptive algorithm. The feature of this absorber is as follows. It has an electrodynamic device for the stiffness control. Using Lorenz´s force, it changes the stiffness by changing the applied current. The change of stiffness results in the natural frequency shift, because its mass and damping coefficient are fixed. We may reduce the vibration of the overall system by tuning the natural frequency of the dynamic absorber to the resonant frequency of the structure, when the dominant single tone oscilation occurs in the system ...

Explicit design formulae of liquid column vibration absorber (LCVA) for suppressing harmonic vibration of structures with small inherent structural damping are developed in this study. The developed design formulae are also applicable to the design of a tuned mass damper (TMD) and a tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) for damped structures under harmonic force excitation. The optimum parameters of LCVA for suppressing harmonic vibration of undamped structures are first derived. Numerical searching of the optimum parameters of tuned vibration absorber system for suppressing harmonic vibration of damped structure is conducted. Explicit formulae for these optimum parameters are then obtained by a series of curve fitting techniques. The analytical result shows that the control performance of TLCD for reducing harmonic vibration of undamped structure is always better than that of non-uniform LCVA for same mass and length ratios. As for the effects of structural damping on the optimum parameters, it is found that the optimum tuning ratio decreases and the optimum damping ratio increases as the structural damping is increased. Furthermore, the optimum head loss coefficient is inversely proportional to the amplitude of excitation force and increases as the structural damping is increased. Numerical verification of the developed explicit design expressions is also conducted and the developed expressions are demonstrated to be reasonably accurate for design purposes.

To efficiently attenuate seismic responses of a structure, a novel pneumatic-driven active dynamic vibration absorber (PD-ADVA) is proposed in this study. PD-ADVA aims to realize closed-loop control using a simple and intuitive control algorithm, which takes the structure velocity response as the input signal and then outputs an inverse control force to primary structure. The corresponding active control theory and phase control mechanism of the system are studied by numerical and theoretical methods, the system's control performance and amplitude-frequency characteristics under seismic excitations are explored. The capability of the proposed active control system to cope with frequency-varying random excitation is evaluated by comparing with the optimum tuning TMD. The analysis results show that the control algorithm of PD-ADVA ensures the control force always output to the structure in the opposite direction of the velocity response, indicating that the presented system does not produce a negative effect. The phase difference between the response of uncontrolled and controlled structures is zero, while the phase difference between the control force and the harmonic excitation is π, the theoretical and numerical results demonstrate that PD-ADVA always generates beneficial control effects. The PD-ADVA can effectively mitigate the structural seismic responses, and its control performance is insensitive to amplitude. Compared with the optimum tuning TMD, PD-ADVA has better control performance and higher system stability, and will not have negative effects under seismic wave excitations.

Ship local structure sometimes experiences severe vibration due to the resonance with an excitation force generated by the propulsion system. In that case, the installation of dynamic vibration absorber such as Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) on the structure can be considered as an effective alternative countermeasure to reduce the troublesome vibration if structural modification or change of excitation frequencies is difficult. Meanwhile, the conventional optimal design method of TMD premises the target structure exposed on an excitation force without the constraint of its magnitude and frequency range. However, the frequencies of major ship excitation forces due to propulsion system are normally bounded and its magnitude is varied according to its operation speed. Hence, the optimal design of TMD to reduce the resonant vibration of ship local structure should be differently approached compared with the conventional ones. For the purpose, this paper proposes an optimal design method of TMD considering maximum frequency and magnitude variation of a target harmonic excitation component. It is done by both lowering the resonant response at the 1st natural frequency and locating the 2nd natural frequency over maximum excitation frequency for the idealized 2 degree of freedom system consisted of the structure and the TMD. For the validation of the proposed method, a numerical design case of TMD for a ship local structure exposed on resonant vibration due to a propeller excitation force is introduced and its performance is compared with the conventionally designed one.
