Motorcycle riders are exposed to hand-transmitted vibration of the hand-arm system due to the vibration of the handle and extended exposure can result in numbness and trembling. One feasible solution to attenuate the handle vibration is by using a dynamic vibration absorber (DVA). In this work a DVA is designed and mounted on the motorcycle handle in order to reduce the vibration at the handle by transferring the vibration from the primary system handle to the secondary mass. Removal of elastomeric material at the DVA mounting locations, symmetry of secondary mass and the direction of DVA attachment influence the vibration absorption. A series of tests conducted show that the vibration on the handle is mainly induced by the engine and there is additional source of vibration from the road surface roughness. Installation of DVA at different locations on the handle resulted in various attenuation levels at different speed in the x and z directions. the attenuation level is between 59-68 % in the biodynamic x-directions for speed at 30-50 kmh-1.

A hybrid proportional electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber consisting of an electromagnetic actuator and an elastic element is proposed for control of engine vibration during idling. The design of the proportional electromagnetic actuator is realized considering the geometric parameters of the core to achieve nearly constant magnetic force over a broad range of its dynamic displacement but proportional to square of the current. The dynamic characteristics of the electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber are analyzed analytically and experimentally. The effects of various geometric parameters of the actuator such as the slopes and width/height, and the air gaps on the resulting magnetic force characteristics are evaluated using a finite element model and verified experimentally. A methodology is proposed to achieve magnetic force proportional to current and consistent with the disturbance frequency. The hybrid proportional electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber is subsequently applied to a single-degree-of-freedom primary system with an acceleration feedback control algorithm for attenuation of primary system vibration in a frequency band around the typical idling vibration frequencies. The effectiveness of the hybrid proportional electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber is evaluated through simulations and laboratory experiments under harmonic excitations in the 20–30 Hz frequency range. Both the simulation and measurements show that the hybrid proportional electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber can yield effective attenuation of periodic idling vibration in the frequency range considered.

Abstract This paper addresses the optimal design of a novel nontraditional inerter-based dynamic vibration absorber (NTIDVA) installed on an undamped primary system of single degree-of-freedom under harmonic and transient excitations. Our NTIDVA is based on the traditional dynamic vibration absorber (TDVA) with the damper replaced by a grounded inerter-based mechanical network. Closed-form expressions of optimal parameters of NTIDVA are derived according to an extended version of fixed point theory developed in the literature and the stability maximization criterion. The transient response of the primary system is optimized when the coupled system becomes defective, namely having three pairs of coalesced conjugate poles, the proof of which is also spelt out in this paper. Moreover, the analogous relationship between NTIDVA and electromagnetic dynamic vibration absorber is highlighted, facilitating the practical implementation of the proposed absorber. Finally, numerical studies suggest that compared with TDVA, NTIDVA can decrease the peak vibration amplitude of the primary system and enlarge the frequency bandwidth of vibration suppression when optimized by the extended fixed point technique, while the stability maximization criterion shows an improved transient response in terms of larger modal damping ratio and accelerated attenuation rate.

Dynamic Vibration Absorbers

In the field of dynamics and control, some typical vibration devices, including grounded stiffness, inerter and amplifying mechanism, have good vibration isolation and reduction effects, especially in dynamic vibration absorber (DVA). However, most of the current research studies only focus on the performance of a single device on the system, and those DVAs are gradually becoming difficult to meet the growth of performance demand for vibration control. On the basis of Voigt dynamic vibration absorber, a novel dynamic vibration absorber model based on the combined structure of grounded stiffness, inerter, and amplifying mechanism is presented, and the analytical solution of the optimal design formula is derived. First, the motion differential equation of the system is established, and the normalized amplitude amplification factor of the displacement is calculated. It is found that the system has three fixed points unrelated to the damping ratio. The optimal frequency ratio is obtained based on the fixed-point theory. In order to ensure the stability of the system, it is found that inappropriate inerter coefficient will cause the system instable when screening optimal grounded stiffness ratio. Accordingly, the best working range of inerter is determined. Finally, optimal grounded stiffness ratio and approximate optimal damping ratio are also obtained. The influence of inerter coefficient and magnification ratio on the response of the primary system is analyzed. The correctness of the derived analytical solution is verified by numerical simulation. Compared with other dynamic vibration absorbers, it is verified that presented model has superior vibration absorption performance and provides a theoretical basis for the design of a new type of dynamic vibration absorbers.

Vibration Attenuation Performance

This article proposes and validates the principle of a new magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) for powertrain mount systems of automobiles. The MRE DVA consists of a vibration absorption unit and a passive vibration isolation unit. The vibration absorption unit composed of a magnetic conductor, a shearing sleeve, a bobbin core, an electromagnetic coil, and a circular cylindrical MRE is utilized to absorb the vibration energy, and the passive vibration isolation unit is used to support the powertrain. The finite element method is employed to validate the electromagnetic circuit of the MRE DVA and obtain the electromagnetic characteristics. The theoretical frequency-shift principle is analyzed via the established constitutive equations of the circular cylindrical MRE In order to demonstrate how the parameters of the MRE influence the vibration attenuation performance, the MRE DVA is applied to a powertrain mount system to replace the conventional passive mount. The frequency-shift property of the vibration absorption unit and the vibration attenuation performance of the MRE DVA on the powertrain mount system are experimentally tested. To validate and improve the vibration attenuation performance for the semi-active powertrain mount systems, an optimal variable step algorithm is proposed for the MRE DVA and numerical experiments are carried out.

This study is concerned with the problem of analysis and optimization of inerter-based systems. A main inerter system is generally composed of an inerter, a spring, and viscous damper. Series – parallel inerter system s and series inerter system s are two commonly used configurations of inerter-based system s . First , in this study , the H∞ optimum parameters of inerter-based isolators are derived to minimize the compliance and mobility transfer function of a single-degree -of-freedom system under a harmonic ground acceleration excitation. Under the optimum tuning condition, it is shown that the proposed inerter-based isolators when compared with the traditional dynamic vibration absorber provide larger suppression of the peak value of the magnitude of compliance and mobility transfer function s of the primary system. For the studied cases, more than 40% and 45% improvement can be attained in terms of minimizing the compliance and mobility transfer function s , respectively, as compared with the traditional dynamic vibration absorber for the series – parallel inerter system and 15% and 11% improvement can be attained respectively , for the series inerter system . Finally, further comparison between the inerter-based isolators and traditional dynamic vibration absorber under white noise excitation also shows that the series – parallel inerter system and series inerter system s are superior to the traditional dynamic vibration absorber . The results of the studied systems show that m ore than 23% and 16% improvement are attained in terms of minimizing the compliance and mobility transfer function s respectively , as compared with the traditional dynamic vibration absorber for the series – parallel inerter system and 26% and 13% improvement can be attained respectively , for the series inerter system . The optimal parameters for different cases are obtained. It is shown that the optimal parameters obtained using the minimized mobility transfer function are smaller than those using the compliance transfer function at all mass ratios or inertance-to-mass ratio. The results of this study can provide theoretical basis for design of the optimal inerter-based isolators in engineering practice.
