In this paper, a properly tuned vibration absorber (spring-mass system) is used to induce a point of zero vibration, or node, anywhere along an arbitrarily supported beam for the purpose of suppressing vibration. Other benefits of enforcing a node include the ability to place a sensitive instrument near or at a point where there is little or no vibration, and to keep any point along the beam stationary without using a rigid support. The assumed-modes method is used to discretize the equations of motion, which conveniently leads to the beam displacement at the node location in matrix form. Exploiting the Sherman-Morrison inverse formula, one can obtain compact, closed-form expressions for the beam deflection at the node location and the displacement of the absorber mass, explicitly in terms of the absorber parameters, attachment location, excitation frequency, forcing location and the node location. The resulting expressions can then be used to systematically perform a parameter sensitivity analysis and rapid design modifications. The proposed work contributes to the parametric study of Euler-Bernoulli beams by leveraging closed-form sensitivity expressions to rapidly account for inverse problems involving parameter tolerances and perturbations. The method introduced in this paper can also be easily extended to accommodate changes in attachment location and the tolerable deflection of the absorber mass without the need to perform a potentially expensive and time-consuming re-analysis. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the utility of using the sensitivity expressions in designing an accurate and robust vibration absorber when slight modifications are introduced.

This paper presents a new design method based on a robust-control strategy in the form of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach for a passive tuned mass damper (TMD), which is one of the common passive-control devices for structural vibration control. To apply the robust control theory, we first present an equivalent expression that describes a passive TMD as an active TMD. Then, some LMI-based condition is derived that not only guarantees robust stability but also allows us to adjust the robust H¥ performance. In particular, this paper considers the transfer function from a seismic-wave input to structural responses. Unlike other methods, this method formulates the problem to be a convex optimization problem that ensures a global optimal solution and considers uncertainties of mass, damping, and stiffness of a structure for designing a TMD. Numerical example uses both a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and 10DOF models, and seismic waves. The simulation results demonstrated that the TMD that is designed by the presented method has good control performance even if the structural model includes uncertainties, which are the modeling errors.

Time and frequency domain numerical models are developed to investigate the acoustic performance of metasurface coatings for marine applications. The coating designs are composed of periodic air-filled cavities embedded in a soft elastic medium, which is attached to a hard backing and submerged in water. Numerical results for a metamaterial coating with cylindrical cavities are favourably compared with analytical and experimental results from the literature. Frequencies associated with peak sound absorption as a function of the geometric parameters of the cavities and material properties of the host medium are predicted. Variation in the cavity dimensions that modifies the cylindrical-shaped cavities to flat disks or thin needles is modelled. Results reveal that high sound absorption occurs when either the diameter or length of the cavities is reduced. Physical mechanisms governing sound absorption for the various cavity designs are described.

In this paper, a hybrid mass damper (HMD) and its hyperstability thanks to a power flow approach are studied. The HMD proposed combines an active control system with an optimal passive device. The initial passive system is an electromagnetic Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) and the control law is a modified velocity feedback with a phase compensator. The resulting hybrid controller system is theoretically hyperstable and ensures fail-safe behavior. Experiments are performed to validate the numerical simulation and provide good results in terms of vibration attenuations. Both excitation from the bottom in the frequency domain and shock response in the time domain are tested and analyzed. The different power flows in terms of active and reactive powers are estimated numerically and experimentally on the inertial damper (passive and active) and on the HMD. More over, through a mechanical analogy of the proposed system, it is shown that this hybrid device can be seen as an active realization of an inerter based tuned-mass-damper associated with a sky-hook damper. Observations and analysis provide insight into the hyperstable behavior imposed by the specific control law.

The transient vibro-impacts induced by clearance between the connected rotors in driveline system easily causes serious transient noise and vibration, especially between the gear teeth with backlash. To analyze the transient vibro-impacts of the driveline system excited by a step-down engine torque, a new piecewise nonlinear clearance element with time-varying stiffness and oil squeeze damping is proposed, and an 8 degree-of-freedom lumped parameters model with the new piecewise nonlinear clearance elements is established. The transient vibro-impact phenomena of the vehicle driveline during fast disengagement of the clutch are numerically simulated. Colormaps of angular acceleration and vibro-impact force shows the difference of frequency components from transient impact to stable tooth-meshing. The phase plane reveals the phenomenon of multiple impacts and rebounds in each transient impact, and shows the relationship between the relative contact displacement and velocity. The frequency responses of the angular velocity, angular acceleration and vibro-impact forces with time-varying stiffness and linear stiffness are compared respectively. Compared with the widely used clearance element with piecewise linear stiffness, the new nonlinear clearance element with the piecewise nonlinear time-varying stiffness can better reveal the transient vibro-impact responses between the driving and driven gears. Lastly, the transient vibro-impact results of driveline system are verified by the vehicle experiments.

A previously proposed planar axisymmetric dynamic vibration absorber (DVA), with embedded acoustic black hole (ABH) features, has been shown to suffer from the very selective coupling with the host structure, thus compromising its vibration reduction performance. To tackle the problem, an eccentric ABH-based circular DVA whose thickness profile is tailored according to a circumferential gradient variation is proposed in this paper. This new configuration preserves the ABH profile in the radial direction alongside a continuous variation along the circumferential direction and breaks the axisymmetry of the original DVA design at the same time. While the former permits the ABH features to fully play out in a continuous manner, the later entails a more effective coupling with the host structure. These salient properties have been demonstrated and confirmed both numerically and experimentally by examining a benchmark plate structure. For analyses, a coupling model embracing the host structure and the add-on DVAs is established which allows the calculation of the coupling coefficient, a vital quantity to guide the DVA design. Studies demonstrate the advantages of the proposed DVA over existing designs for the same given mass. The enriched structural coupling and the enhanced modal damping, arising from the eccentric and circumferentially graded ABH design, are shown to be the origin of such improvement. All in all, the physical process underpinning the dynamic absorber principle and waveguide absorber from the host structures is simultaneously consolidated, thus leading to superior broadband structural vibration suppression.

A new moving Kirchhoff-Love plate element is developed in this work to accurately and efficiently calculate the dynamic response of vehicle-pavement interaction. Since the vehicle can only affect a small region nearby, the wide pavement is reduced to a small reduced plate area around the vehicle. The vehicle loads moving along an arbitrary trajectory is considered, and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method is used here for coordinate conversion. The reduced plate area is spatially discretized using the current moving plate element, where its governing equations are derived using Lagrange's equations. The moving plate element is validated by different plate subjected to moving load cases, where the influences of different factors on reduced plate area length of the RBM model are also investigated. Then a vehicle-pavement interaction case with constant and variable speed is analyzed here. The calculation results from the moving plate element are in good agreement with those from the modal superposition method (MSM), and the calculation time with the moving plate element is only one third of that using the MSM. It is also found that the moving load velocity and ground damping have great influences on reduced plate area length of the RBM. The moving plate element is accurate and more efficient than the MSM in calculating the dynamic response of the vehicle-pavement interaction.

This paper proposes an active modal vibration control method based on a modal sliding mode controller applied to a smart material composite structure with integrated piezoelectric transducers as actuators and sensors. First, the electromechanical coupled system is identified using a modal reduced-order model. The sliding surface is based on the modal-filtered states and designed using a general formulation allowing the control of multiple vibration modes with multiple piezoelectric sensors and actuators. The performance and stability of the nonlinear controller are addressed and confirmed with the experimental results on a composite smart spoiler-shaped structure. The nonlinear switching control signal, based on the modal-shaped sliding surface improves the performances of the linear part of the control while maintaining not only stability but also robustness. The attenuation level achieved on the target modes on all piezoelectric sensors starts from -14dB up to -22dB, illustrating the strong potential of nonlinear switching control methods in active vibration control.

A characteristic feature of nonlinear vibrations is the energy transfer among different parts or modes of a mechanical system. Moreover, nonlinear vibrations are often non-periodic, even at steady state. To analyze these phenomena experimentally, the vibration response must be measured at multiple locations in a time-synchronous way. For this task, piezoelectric accelerometers are by far the most popular technology. While the effect of attached sensors on linear vibration properties is well-known (mass loading in particular), the purpose of the present work is to assess their intrusiveness on nonlinear vibrations. To this end, we consider a compressor blade that undergoes impacts near the tip for sufficiently large vibrations. We consider two configurations, one in which five triaxial piezoelectric accelerometers are glued to the blade surface and one without sensors attached. In both configurations, the vibration response is measured using a multi-point laser Doppler vibrometer. In the linear case without impacts, the lowest-frequency bending mode merely sees the expected slight frequency shift due to mass loading. In the nonlinear vibro-impact case, unexpectedly, the near-resonant response to harmonic base excitation changes severely both quantitatively and qualitatively. In particular, pronounced strongly modulated responses and period doubling are observed only in the case without attached sensors. We conjecture that this is due to a considerable increase of damping, caused by the sensor cables, affecting mainly the higher-frequency modes.

This paper presents a new approach to predicting an incipient critical speed in a rotating shaft. Based on the classical governing equations of motion for an eccentric mass on a flexible shaft (the Jeffcott rotor model), the approach is centered on examining the behavior of small perturbations or random disturbances to infer the approach of a critical speed (resonance). Such disturbances, that may be based on intentional probing, or simply the result of naturally occurring fluctuations, cause small transients. It is the changing nature of these transients (as characterized by their associated eigenvalues) that is used to assess the proximity to a critical speed. In this paper the material developed is based on analysis, but generating the data from simulations or experiments will be the next step. The approach is a kind of stress-test, conceptually not dissimilar to structural health monitoring and damage detection, but here directed toward the lead-up to resonance.
