This paper presents a study of the frequency domain behaviour of a single degree of freedom (SDOF) system with a fractional derivative model, named Fractional Kelvin-Voigt. Frequency response functions (FRFs) as receptance and transmissibility are analytically studied. Then the model is applied to describe the dynamic behaviour of a magneto-mechanic system in the frequency domain, consisting of a body of para or dia-magnetic material vibrating in a field created by a pair of magnets.

The fact that a complex-damped model may represent the dynamic behaviour of elasto-mechanical systems when acted upon by a magnetic field was brought to the attention of the structural dynamics community very recently by Professor Bruno A. D. Piombo and his colleagues at the Politecnico di Torino. In this paper a thorough analysis of the single degree-of-freedom complex-damped mass-spring system is presented. The analysis includes the root locus, the (non-causal) impulse response, the frequency response and the transmissibility. Regions of different behaviour in the frequency response and transmissibility are described in detail. The stiffening behaviour observed in Prof. Piombo's experiments and known as the "phantom effect" is demonstrated by the complex-damped model.

This article concerns the free vibration of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system with three types of nonlinear damping. One system considered is where the spring and the damper are connected to the mass so that they are orthogonal, and the vibration is in the direction of the spring. It is shown that, provided the displacement is small, this system behaves in a similar way to the conventional SDOF system with cubic damping, in which the spring and the damper are connected so they act in the same direction. For completeness, these systems are compared with a conventional SDOF system with quadratic damping. By transforming all the equations of motion of the systems so that the damping force is proportional to the product of a displacement dependent term and velocity, then all the systems can be directly compared. It is seen that the system with cubic damping is worse than that with quadratic damping for the attenuation of free vibration.

AbstractThis paper presents an experimental investigation of the dynamic behaviour of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDoF) system with a metal-to-metal contact under harmonic base or joined base-wall excitation. The experimental results are compared with those yielded by mathematical models based on a SDoF system with Coulomb damping. While previous experiments on friction-damped systems focused on the characterisation of the friction force, the proposed approach investigates the steady response of a SDoF system when different exciting frequencies and friction forces are applied. The experimental set-up consists of a single-storey building, where harmonic excitation is imposed on a base plate and a friction contact is achieved between a steel top plate and a brass disc. The experimental results are expressed in terms of displacement transmissibility, phase angle and top plate motion in the time and frequency domains. Both continuous and stick-slip motions are investigated. The main results achieved in this paper are: (1) the development of an experimental set-up capable of reproducing friction damping effects on a harmonically excited SDoF system; (2) the validation of the analytical model introduced by Marino et al. (Nonlinear Dyn, 2019. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11071-019-04983-x) and, particularly, the inversion of the transmissibility curves in the joined base-wall motion case; (3) the systematic observation of stick-slip phenomena and their validation with numerical results.

In this paper, time domain data from piezoelectric active-sensing techniques is utilized for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. Piezoelectric transducers have been increasingly used in SHM because of their proven advantages. Especially, their ability to provide known repeatable inputs for active-sensing approaches to SHM makes the development of SHM signal processing algorithms more efficient and less susceptible to operational and environmental variability. However, to date, most of these techniques have been based on frequency domain analysis, such as impedance-based or high-frequency response functions-based SHM techniques. Even with Lamb wave propagations, most researchers adopt frequency domain or other analysis for damage-sensitive feature extraction. Therefore, this study investigates the use of a time-series predictive model which utilizes the data obtained from piezoelectric active-sensors. In particular, time series autoregressive models with exogenous inputs are implemented in order to extract damage-sensitive features from the measurements made by piezoelectric active-sensors. The test structure considered in this study is a composite plate, where several damage conditions were artificially imposed. The performance of this approach is compared to that of analysis based on frequency response functions and its capability for SHM is demonstrated.

In this study, the performance of a new controllable mount design utilizing a magnetorheological material encapsulated in an elastomer matrix is investigated. A magnetorheological fluid-elastomer (MRF-E) mount is designed and fabricated, and its dynamic performance is studied under harmonic oscillatory vibrations for a wide range of frequencies and various applied magnetic fields. Also, a theoretical analysis is conducted by proposing a three-element phenomenological model for replicating the dynamic behavior of the MRF-E mount under oscillation loadings, and the results are compared with the experimental data. In order to further evaluate the effectiveness of the MRF-E mount for vibration control, a single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system incorporated with this device is developed. Theoretically, the equation of motion utilizing the proposed phenomenological model is derived to provide performance predictions on the effectiveness of the semiactive device at suppressing unwanted vibrations. Experimentally, a SDOF system constrained to rectilinear motion and composed of a mass, four linear springs, and the MRF-E mount is designed and manufactured. This work demonstrates the performance of the proposed MRF-E mount and its capability in attenuating undesirable system vibrations for a range of small-displacement amplitudes and frequencies.

A tuned mass damper is a device, which can be highly helpful while dealing with dynamic behaviour of structures. Its proper design is conditioned by knowledge of both loading and the structure properties. In many cases, the structure can be represented by single degree of freedom model, which simplifies the design and optimization of tuned mass dampers. Most of studies focus only on minimization of displacement of the main structure under harmonic force load, however, in many cases, different frequency response function would be more appropriate. This paper presents an extension of design formulas for the H∞ optimization of tuned mass dampers for damped structures and various frequency response functions.

Abstract Highly dynamic machining forces can cause excessive and unstable vibrations when industrial robots are used to perform high-force operations such as milling and drilling. Implementing appropriate optimization and control strategies to suppress vibrations during robotic machining requires accurate models of the robot’s vibration response to the machining forces generated at its tool center point (TCP). The existing models of machining vibrations assume the linearity of the structural dynamics of the robotic arm. This assumption, considering the inherent nonlinearities in the robot’s revolute joints, may cause considerable inaccuracies in predicting the extent and stability of vibrations during the process. In this article, a single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system with the nonlinear restoring force is used to model the vibration response of a KUKA machining robot at its TCP (i.e., machining tool-tip). The experimental identification of the restoring force shows that its damping and stiffness components can be approximated using cubic models. Subsequently, the higher-order frequency response functions (HFRFs) of the SDOF system are estimated experimentally, and the parameters of the SDOF system are identified by curve fitting the resulting HFRFs. The accuracy of the presented SDOF modeling approach in capturing the nonlinearity of the TCP vibration response is verified experimentally. It is shown that the identified models accurately predict the variation of the receptance of the nonlinear system in the vicinity of well-separated peaks, but nonlinear coupling around closely spaced peaks may cause inaccuracies in the prediction of system dynamics.
