✦ Synopsis

During a study of the dynamic characteristics of a wire rope vibration isolation system constructed with helical isolators, an interesting instability was observed. Following an experimental investigation of this system, a semi-empirical model having non-linear stiffness, (n)th power velocity damping, and variable Coulomb-type friction damping was developed. Results obtained using ACSL compare well with experimental data. The primary emphasis of this paper, however, centers on the instabilities and large-response behavior of this semi-empirical model. Stabilizing effects are discussed.

The Tuned Liquid Damper (TLD) is modelled numerically as an equivalent tuned mass damper with non-linear sti!ness and damping. These parameters are derived from extensive experimental results described in References 1 and 2. This Non-linear Sti!ness and Damping (NSD) model captures the behaviour of

This paper addresses the problem of stabilization of a class of internally passive non-linear time-invariant dynamic systems. A class of non-linear marginally strictly passive (MSP) systems is defined, which is less restrictive than input-strictly passive systems. It is shown that the interconnectio

A shape optimization method for geometrically non-linear structural mechanics based on a sensitivity gradient is proposed. This gradient is computed by means of an adjoint state equation and the structure is analysed with a total Lagrangian formulation. This classical method is well understood for r
