Various aspects of the forced response of a damped one-dimensional periodic structure are considered. Initially, the attenuation produced by damping is investigated, and it is shown that this may be of the same order of magnitude as the localization factor produced by structural irregularity. An eff
This paper deals with the characterization of damping in dynamical structural systems. In particular, the problem of how the modal damping ratios change with di!erent boundary conditions is addressed. It is shown that only Rayleigh-type damping is actually independent of boundary conditions and moda
In this paper the e$ciency of various dissipative mechanisms to protect structures from pulse-type and near-source ground motions is examined. Physically realizable cycloidal pulses are introduced, and their resemblance to recorded near-source ground motions is illustrated. The study uncovers the co
We give a purely analytical perturbation method of solution of the van der Pol equation, whereby the periodic solution can be actually developed in the form of a power series in the damping parameter up to any desired order and thus analysed in detail. The coefficients of the series solution, which
This paper is concerned with the semi-active control of structural vibrations via variable damping elements. Such an approach is insensitive to the spillover problem encountered in fully-active systems. An algorithm based on the sliding mode theory is developed and analysed. Comparing to the ad hoc
