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

โฆ Synopsis
To improve the performance of a non-linear shock isolator, four di!erent alternatives are being considered and compared. These are (i) an isolator with a Coulomb damper, (ii) a three-element isolator, (iii) an isolator along with vibration absorber and (iv) a two-stage isolator. Three di!erent types of shock inputs are considered as the base motion to be isolated. Three di!erent indices are used to judge the overall performance characteristics of the isolator. Overall, it is seen that the three-element and two-stage isolators are preferable in the presence of a non-linear cubic damping.

The behavior of natural frequencies of linear systems under an increase of rigidity or inertia is established by the classical Rayleigh theorem [1]. In the first part of this paper the analogous problem is investigated for free oscillations frequencies of non-linear Hamiltonian systems with fixed to
Chaotic oscillations of a harmonically excited mass on a non-linear isolator are investigated. The magnitude of the strictly dissipative damping force on the mass, provided by the isolator, is assumed to be proportional to the pth power of velocity.

In this paper, the dynamical behavior of a shallow arch subjected to periodic excitation with internal resonance is explored in detail. The parametric plane is then divided into di!erent types of regions by the transition boundaries according to the types of the steady state solutions. A time-integr
