Using nonlinear energy sink absorber (NESA) is a good countermeasure for vibration suppression in wide board frequency region. The nonlinear normal modes (NNMs) are helpful in dynamics analysis for a NESA-attached system. Being a primary structure, a cantilever beam whose modal functions contain hyperbolic functions is surveyed, in case of being attached with NESA and subjected to a harmonic excitation. With the help of Galerkins method and Raushers method, the NNMs are obtained analytically. The comparison of analytical and numerical results indicates a good agreement, which confirms the existence of the nonlinear normal modes.

This paper presents a novel design by integrating geometrical and material nonlinear energy sink (NES) with a piezoelectric-based vibration energy harvester under shock excitation, which can realize vibration control and energy harvesting. The nonlinear spring and hysteresis behavior of the NES could reflect geometrical and material nonlinearity, respectively. Two configurations of the piezoelectric device, including the piezoelectric element embedded between the NES mass and the single-degree-of-freedom system or ground, are utilised to examine the energy dissipated by damper and hysteresis behavior of NES and the energy harvested by the piezoelectric element. Similar numerical research methods of Runge-Kutta algorithm are used to investigate the two configurations. The energy transaction measure (ETM) is adopted to examine the instantaneous energy transaction between the primary and the NES-piezoelectricity system. And it demonstrates that the dissipated and harvested energy transaction is transferred from the primary system to the NES-piezoelectricity system and the instantaneous transaction of mechanical energy occupies a major part of the energy of transaction. Both figurations could realize vibration control efficiently.

We present a study of passive but efficient vibration control, wherein a so-called nonlinear energy sink (NES) completely eliminates the limit cycle oscillations (LCOs) of a van der Pol oscillator. We first perform a parameter study in order to get overall understanding of responses with respect to parameters. Then, we establish a slow flow dynamics model to perform analytical study of the suppression mechanism which corresponds to classical nonlinear energy pumping, i.e., passive, broadband, and targeted energy transfer through 1:1 resonance capture. Utilizing the method of numerical continuation of equilibrium, we also study the bifurcation of the steady state solutions. It turns out that the system may have either subcritical or supercritical LCOs, and that for some parameter domain the LCOs are completely eliminated. This suggests applicability of the NES to vibration control in self-excited systems.
