✦ Synopsis
The vibrations and damping characteristics of an annular plate with constrained layer damping (CLD) treatment subject to a traveling spring-mass-damper (SMD) are investigated. The equations of the CLD-treated plate are first derived from the energy principle. These equations are simplified via the Donnell-Mushtari-Vlasov assumptions. The response equations are eventually uncoupled for each mode and are in terms of a single-degree-of-freedom (s.d.o.f.) linear oscillator with hysteretic damping. The receptance method follows to joint the plate and the SMD, and the resulting change of natural frequencies and damping ratios are investigated. Individual effects due to the inertia and the stiffness are illustrated as well. The results shows that the damping ratios resulted from the viscoelastic core are more significant than that from the viscous damper. In addition, there exists a best design on the thickness of the viscoelastic material core to have the maximum damping ratios. The results also show that the attachment of SMD bifurcated the plate's natural frequencies for every mode but n ¼ 0: The bifurcation becomes more obvious with the rotational speed. These results provide useful information for vibration suppression in engineering design.
