โœฆ Synopsis

Vibration isolators consisting of polymeric materials exhibit non-linearity in their stiffness and damping characteristics. Two different approaches towards modelling these non-linear characteristics are discussed. In one approach, experimentally obtained hysteresis loops are modelled through a suitable constitutive equation. In the other, experimentally obtained harmonic, displacement transmissibility plots are modelled by expressing the restoring and damping forces through lower order polynomials of deformation and rate of deformation, respectively. In both cases, it is observed that the dynamic stiffness, which is more than the static stiffness, exhibits a small softening type non-linearity. The non-linearity in the damping characteristic is seen to be more pronounced than that in the stiffness.

Vibration isolators having non-linearity in both stiffness and damping terms are analyzed under harmonic excitations. Isolators with symmetric as well as asymmetric restoring forces are considered. The method of harmonic balance is used to obtain the steady state, harmonic response and transmissibil

This paper addresses the parameter identification of friction-type hysteretic isolators based on the versatile Bouc-Wen differential model. A frequency domain method is developed to identify the model parameters from the experimental data of periodic vibration tests. All the five parameters in the h

An analysis is presented on the dynamics of a two-degree-of-freedom non-linear mechanical oscillator. The model consists of a rigid body which is supported by non-linear springs and can exhibit both vertical translation and rocking motions. Attention is focused on the response of the system under ex

Free, out-of-plane vibration of a rotating beam with a non-linear, elastomeric constraint has been investigated. The elastomer is modelled as a parallel combination of spring and damper elements. The stiffness and damping parameters are evaluated by using previous experimental data. The linear analy

Vibrating systems usually have an in"nite number of degrees of freedom (d.o.f.). Since a "nite number of measurement d.o.f. can only capture certain deformation patterns, the spatial characteristics of vibrating systems are only partially observed experimentally. This research examines the e!ects of
