In this paper, a new plate-type dynamic vibration absorber is presented for controlling the several predominant modes of vibration of plate (mainplate) under harmonic excitation, which consists of a plate (dynamic absorbing plate) under the same boundary condition as the main plate and with uniformly distributed connecting springs and dampers between the main and dynamic absorbing plates. Equations of motion of the system in the modal coordinates of the main plate become equal to those of the two-degrees-of-freedom system with two masses and three springs. Formulas for optimum design of the plate-type dynamic vibration absorber are presented using the optimum tuning method of a dynamic absorber in two-degrees-of-freedom system, obtained by the Den Hartog method. Moreover, for practical problems regarding large-scale plates, an approximate tuning method of the plate-type dynamic absorbers with several sets of concentrated connecting springs and dampers is also presented. The numerical calculations demonstrate the effectiveness of the plate-type dynamic absorbers.

Abstract To absorb the vibration of the carbody of the high-speed train in multiple degrees of freedom, a multi-degree of freedom dynamic vibration absorber (MDOF DVA) is proposed. Installed under the carbody, the natural vibration frequency of the MDOF DVA from each DOF can be designed as a DVA for each single degree of freedom of the carbody. Hence, a 12-DOF model including the main vibration system and a MDOF DVA is established, and the principle of Multi-DOF dynamic vibration absorption is analyzed by combining the design method of single DVA and genetic algorithm. Based on a high-speed train dynamics model including an under-carbody MDOF DVA, the vibration control effect on each DOF of the MDOF DVA is analyzed by the virtual excitation method. Moreover, a high static and low dynamic stiffness (HSLDS) mount is proposed based on a cam–roller–spring mechanism for the installation of the MDOF DVA due to the requirement of the low vertical dynamic stiffness. From the dynamic simulation of a non-linear model in time-domain, the vibration control performance of the MDOF DVA installed with nonlinear HSLDS mount on the carbody is analyzed. The results show that the MDOF DVA can absorb the vibration of the carbody in multiple degrees of freedom effectively, and improve the running ride quality of the vehicle.

The rail between two adjacent fasteners is regarded as the research object, and the rail is simplified as the main vibration system of undamped single degree of freedom, which supports the elastic components. The dynamic vibration absorber is simplified as a spring and damped system of 3-DOF(three degrees of freedom), to establish a mathematical model of rail dynamic vibration absorber. Through relevant theories, the parameter values of dynamic vibration absorber can be deduced when it achieves the best absorption effect. In accordance with the parameters, the scantlings of the structure of the dynamic vibration absorber can also be designed. Through the finite element software, the finite element model CRTS _ Ballastless Track system is established; with consideration of the value of irregularity, we load it variously. Analysis results showed that: compared to the rail and track where the dynamic vibration absorber is not installed, the maximum vertical displacement of the rail and track where a dynamic vibration absorber is installed was reduced by 65% and 67% respectively, the maximum vertical acceleration decreased by 75% and 70% and around, which reveals that the rail dynamic vibration absorber has a good vibration-reducing effect.

Dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) is a simple and effective device for vibration absorption used in many practical applications. Determination of suitable parameters for DVA is of significant importance to achieve high vibration reduction effectiveness. This paper presents a   method to find the optimal parameters of a DVA attached to a linear damped rotary system excited by harmonic torque. To this end, a closed-form formula for the optimum tuning parameter is derived using the fixed-point theory based on an assumption that the damped rotary systems are lightly or moderately damped. The optimal damping ratio of DVA is found by solving a set of non-linear equations established by the Chebyshev's min-max criterion. The performance of the proposed optimal DVA is compared with that obtained by existing optimal solution in literature. It is shown that the proposed optimal parameters are possible to obtain superior vibration suppression compared to existing optimal formula. Extended simulations are carried out to examine the performance of the optimally designed DVA and the sensitivity of the optimum parameters. The simulation results show that the improvement of the vibration performance on damped rotary system can be as much as 90% by using DVA.

The existing available research outcomes on vibration attenuation control for time-delay feedback indicate that, for the delay dynamic vibration absorber with fixed time-delay control parameters, under harmonic excitation, a good vibration attenuation control effect occurs on the vibration of the main system. However, the effect is not obvious for complex excitation. Aiming at the above problems, in a short time interval, a harmonic excitation with the same displacement size as the complex excitation was established. Then, by calculating its equivalent amplitude and equivalent frequency, a harmonic equivalent method for complex excitation was proposed in this paper. The time-delay parameters were adjusted according to the equivalent frequency of harmonic equivalent excitation in real time; therefore, a good vibration attenuation control effect was obtained through the delay dynamic vibration absorber in the discrete time interval. In this paper, research on a time-varying delay dynamic vibration absorber was conducted by taking the two-degree-of-freedom vibration system with a delay dynamic vibration absorber as an example. The simulation results show that the proposed control method can reduce the vibration of the main system by about 30% compared with the passive vibration absorber. This can obviously improve the performance of the time-delay dynamic vibration absorber. It provides a new technical idea for the design of vehicle active frame system.

Vibrations due to mechanical excitation and internal and external fluid flow can cause fatigue in pipelines and leaks in fittings. A beam-based dynamic vibration absorber (beam DVA) is a device comprising an L-shaped beam with a concentrated mass at its free end that can be used to absorb and dissipate vibrations in the pipeline. In this paper, a mathematical equation is extracted to design the beam DVA using the dimensional analysis (DA) method and data recorded from 120 experimental tests. In the experimental studies, the pipes are fabricated in 1-inch, 2-inch, and 3-inch sizes. Each pipe is subjected to harmonic excitation at different frequencies, and the amplitude of vibration of the pipe is evaluated by changes in the geometric characteristics of beam DVA and concentrated mass. The proposed methodology is validated using the finite element method and simulation in the SIMULINK/MATLAB. The results showed that, out of the nine effective dimensionless parameters identified in pipe vibration control, mass ratio and stiffness ratio have the highest and lowest impacts on pipe vibration absorption, respectively.

Dual Translational dynamic vibration absorber (dDVA) is two DVA masses that can move in the translational direction and given into the system to reduce system-translation translational vibrations. The research about using dual translational DVA to reduce vibration with the simulation method has been done, but a study about using the experimental method in that study to do validation from the simulation results that never been done. In this research we conducted a study related to the characteristics of 2 DOF system vibration response after the addition of dual translational DVA with an experimental approach and compared the results with simulation results data. Comparison between experiment date and simulation date is done in order to determine the level of error between the two methods. Simulation data is obtained by simulating the existing equations of motion from the study of literature, while the experimental data is obtained from testing with a DVA test with several changes in the frequency of excitation. From this research shows that the vibration characteristics of the experimental results are the same as the characteristics of the vibration of the simulation results, with an average significance level of 91.5%. The error that occurs between the results of the simulation and experiment is caused by the disappearance of some vibrations from the main system to the environment around the system, so that resulting differences result between simulation and experiment.

Abstract An energy harvesting dynamic vibration absorber is studied to suppress undesirable vibrations in a host structure as well as to harvest electrical energy from vibrations using piezoelectric transduction. The present work studies the feasibility of using vibration absorber for harvesting energy under random excitation and in presence of parametric uncertainties. A two degrees of freedom model is considered in the analytical formulation for the host along with the absorber. A separate equation is used for energy generation from piezoelectric material. Two studies are reported here, (i) with random excitation where the base input is considered to be Gaussian; (ii) parametric uncertainty is considered with harmonic excitation. Under random base excitation the analytical results show that, with the proper selection of parameters, harvested electrical energy can be increased along with the reduction in vibration of the host structure. Graphs are reported showing trade-off between harvested energy and vibration control. Whereas, Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to analyze the system with parametric uncertainty. This showed that the mean harvested power decreases with an increase in uncertainties in the natural frequency as well as damping ratio. In addition, optimal electrical parameters for obtaining maximum power for the case of uncertain parameters are also reported in this study.
