A method for identifying the physical parameters of joints in mechanical systems is presented. In the method, a multi-d.o.f. (degree-of-freedom) system is transformed into several single d.o.f. systems using selected eigenvectors. With the result from modal testing, each single d.o.f. system is used to solve for a pair of unknown physical parameters. For complicated cases where the exact eigenvector cannot be obtained, it will be proven that a particular physical parameter has a stationary value in the neighborhood of an eigenvector. Therefore, a good approximation for a joint physical parameter can be obtained by using an approximate eigenvector and the exact value for the joint parameters can be reached by carrying out this process in an iterative way.

Abstract To absorb the vibration of the carbody of the high-speed train in multiple degrees of freedom, a multi-degree of freedom dynamic vibration absorber (MDOF DVA) is proposed. Installed under the carbody, the natural vibration frequency of the MDOF DVA from each DOF can be designed as a DVA for each single degree of freedom of the carbody. Hence, a 12-DOF model including the main vibration system and a MDOF DVA is established, and the principle of Multi-DOF dynamic vibration absorption is analyzed by combining the design method of single DVA and genetic algorithm. Based on a high-speed train dynamics model including an under-carbody MDOF DVA, the vibration control effect on each DOF of the MDOF DVA is analyzed by the virtual excitation method. Moreover, a high static and low dynamic stiffness (HSLDS) mount is proposed based on a cam–roller–spring mechanism for the installation of the MDOF DVA due to the requirement of the low vertical dynamic stiffness. From the dynamic simulation of a non-linear model in time-domain, the vibration control performance of the MDOF DVA installed with nonlinear HSLDS mount on the carbody is analyzed. The results show that the MDOF DVA can absorb the vibration of the carbody in multiple degrees of freedom effectively, and improve the running ride quality of the vehicle.
