Optimum Vibration Control of a Nonlinear Damper System under Multi-Axis Excitations

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents an investigation of the vibration control performance of a nonlinear damper system under multi-axis excitations, focusing on its optimum strategy. The nonlinear damper system is composed of a particle damper and a primary structure. Cross-correlation functions and auto-correlation functions are shown to be suitable means to interpret the physics involved in the behavior of such a nonlinear system. Using different types of random excitations, the optimum operating regions are all determined, within which particles move in a plug flow pattern and correlation functions decay much faster than that under the inefficient operating conditions.
