In the present works, we examine experimentally and theoretically the dynamic behavior of linear oscillator strongly coupled to a nonlinear energy sink under external periodic forcing. The nonlinear oscillator has a nonlinear restoring force realized geometrically with two linear springs that extend axially and are free to rotate. Hence, the force-displacement relationship is cubic. The linear oscillator is directly excited via an electrodynamic shaker. Experiments realized on the test bench consist of measuring the displacement of the oscillators while increasing and decreasing frequencies around the fundamental resonance of the linear oscillator. Many nonlinear dynamical phenomena are observed on the experimental setup such as jumps, bifurcation, and quasiperiodic regimes. The retained nonlinear model is a two degree of freedom system. The behavior of the system is then explained analytically and numerically. The complexification averaging technique is used to derive a set of modulation equation governing the evolution of the complex amplitude at the frequency of excitation, and a stability analysis is performed.

Recently, it has been demonstrated that a Vibro-Impact type Nonlinear Energy Sink (VI-NES) can be used efficiently to mitigate vibration of a Linear Oscillator (LO) under transient loading. In this paper, the dynamic response of an harmonically forced LO, strongly coupled to a VI-NES is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Due to the small mass ratio between the LO and the flying mass of the NES, the obtained equation of motion are analyzed using the method of multiple scales in the case of 1 : 1 resonance. It is shown that in addition to periodic response, system with VI-NES can exhibit Strongly Modulated Response (SMR). Experimentally, the whole system is embedded on an electrodynamic shaker. The VI-NES is realized with a ball which is free to move in a cavity with a predesigned gap. The mass of the ball is less than 1% of the mass of the LO. The experiment confirms the existence of periodic and SMR response regimes. A good agreement between theoretical and experimental results is observed.

The phenomenon of energy pumping, in which vibratory energy is transferred irreversibly within a nonlinear, multi-degree-of-freedom system with the goal of reducing the transient response of the primary substructure, has recently been investigated analytically and through numerical simulations. The dynamics of single degree of freedom linear subsystem with attached nonlinear energy sink is investigated. The response of a linear oscillator attached to nonlinear energy sink with relatively small mass under external forcing in a vicinity of main resonance is studied analytically and numerically. It is possible that targeted energy could transfer from linear oscillators to the nonlinear energy sink in this system. Analytical model is verified numerically and a fairly good correspondence is observed. Fractional calculus offers a powerful tool to describe the dynamic behavior of real vibration absorption. A version of the fractional derivative models is presented and investigated in this paper for analyzing vibration absorption behavior of nonlinear energy sink. It is shown that the fractional-order system is in a stronger position than the traditional nonlinear energy sink coupled to the linear oscillator.

In this paper, the dynamic response of a harmonically forced Linear Oscillator (LO) strongly coupled to a Nonlinear Energy Sink (NES) is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The system studied comprises a linear oscillator subject to an imposed displacement with an embedded, purely cubic, NES. The behavior of the system is analyzed in the vicinity of 1:1 resonance. The complexification averaging technique is used to obtain modulation equations and the associated fixed points. These modulation equations are analyzed using asymptotic expansion to study the regimes related as relaxation oscillation of the slow flow called Strongly Modulated Response (SMR). The zones where SMR occur are computed using a mapping procedure. The Slow Invariant Manifolds (SIM) is used to derive a proper optimization procedure. It is shown that there exist an optimal zone in the parameter plane forcing amplitude–nonlinear stiffness, where SMR occurs without having a high amplitude detached resonance tongue. An experimental setup exhibits a strong mass asymmetry (mass ratio ≈ 1%). The cubic stiffness is realized geometrically with two linear spring that extend axially and are free to rotate. Using the previous optimized stiffness of the NES, different frequency response curves and associated zones of SMR are obtained for various forcing amplitude. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental results is observed. The reported experimental results confirm the design procedure, and the possible application of NES for vibration mitigation under periodic forcing.

Quasi-periodic response of a linear oscillator attached to nonlinear energy sink with relatively small mass under external sinusoidal forcing in a vicinity of main (1:1) resonance is studied analytically and numerically. It is shown that the quasi-periodic response is exhibited in well-defined amplitude-frequency range of the external force. Two qualitatively different regimes of the quasi-periodic response are revealed. The first appears as a result of linear instability of the steady-state regime of the oscillations. The second one occurs due to interaction of the dynamical flow with invariant manifold of damped-forced nonlinear normal mode of the system, resulting in hysteretic motion of the flow in the vicinity of this mode. Parameters of external forcing giving rise to the quasi-periodic response are predicted by means of simplified analytic model. The model also allows predicting that the stable quasi-periodic regimes appear for certain range of damping coefficient. All findings of the simplified analytic model are verified numerically and considerable agreement is observed.

This paper presents the interest of an original absorber of vibration in order to reduce chatter vibration in turning process. The device is composed of a linear oscillator corresponding to a flexible cutting tool subject to chatter strongly coupled to a Nonlinear Energy Sink (NES), with purely cubic stiffness. The novelty of this work is the use of a nonlinear cutting law, more accurate for modeling the cutting process. The delayed equations of motion are analyzed using a combination of the method of multiple scales and harmonic balance. Different types of responses regimes are revealed such as periodic response and also Strongly Modulated Response (SMR). Analytic results are then compared with numerical simulations. Finally, the potential of the NES is demonstrated to control chatter in turning process.

Abstract Nonlinear energy sink (NES) refers to a typical passive vibration device connected to linear or weakly nonlinear structures for vibration absorption and mitigation. This study investigates the dynamics of 1-dof and 2-dof NES with nonlinear damping and combined stiffness connected to a linear oscillator. For the system of 1-dof NES, a truncation damping and failure frequency are revealed through bifurcation analysis using the complex variable averaging method. The frequency detuning interval for the existence of the strongly modulated response (SMR) is also reported . For the system of 2-dof NES, it is reported in a similar bifurcation analysis that the mass distribution between NES affects the maximum value of saddle-node bifurcation. To obtain the periodic solution of the 2-dof NES system with the consideration of frequency detuning, the incremental harmonic balance method (IHB) and Floquet theory are employed. The corresponding response regime is obtained by Poincare mapping, it shows that the responses of the linear oscillator and 2-dof NES are not always consistent, and 2-dof NES can generate extra SMR than 1-dof NES. Finally, the vibration suppression effect of the proposed NES with nonlinear damping and combined stiffness is analyzed and verified by the energy spectrum, and it also shows that the 2-dof NES system demonstrates better performance.
