The article presents a method of active vibration reduction of vibrating mechanical systems. This method is based on the properties of positive rational functions, which in the case of discrete dynamical systems correspond to the characteristic function describing such systems. The method formalized uses methods for decomposing positive rational functions. The advantage of this approach is taking into account the analytical form of a characteristic function of the system being tested and the vibration-reducing force, as well as the conditions that the system should meet in the event of an active vibration-reducing force. In addition, in the proposed method, the desired dynamic properties of the system and the vibration-reducing force can be defined in such a way that the determined parameters of the active force affect all forms of the natural vibrations of the examined system. Based on the formalized methodology, the force reducing the vibrations of a four-storey frame to the desired displacement amplitude was determined. The impact of the place of application of the specific active force on the reduction of vibration of the tested object was also taken into account. The vibrations of the tested structure’s model were caused by kinematic excitation with a harmonic course and an amplitude corresponding to an earthquake of a magnitude of 5 on the Richter scale. To verify the determined force reducing the vibrations of the object and to create a visualisation of the analysed phenomenon, a dynamic analysis of the building structure was carried out using PLM Siemens NX 12 software.

The paper formulates a method of active reduction of structure vibrations in the selected resonance zones of the tested object. The method ensures reduction of vibrations of the selected resonance zones by determining the parameters of the active force that meets the desired dynamic properties. The paper presents a method for determining the parameters of the active force by reducing the vibrations of the structure in its resonance zones to a given vibration amplitude. For this purpose, an analytical form was formulated, which will clearly define the dynamic properties of the tested object and the force reducing the vibrations in the form of a mathematical model. The formulated mathematical model is a modified object input function, which in its form takes into account the properties of the active force reducing the vibrations. In such a case, it is possible to use the methods of mechanical synthesis to decompose the modified characteristic function into the parameters of the system and the parameters of the force being sought. In the formulated method, the desired dynamic properties of the system and the vibration reducing force were defined in such a way that the determined parameters of the active force (velocity-dependent function) had an impact on all forms of natural vibrations of the tested system. Based on the formalized method, the force reducing the vibrations of the four-story frame to the desired displacement amplitude was determined. Two cases of determining the active force reducing the vibrations to the desired vibration amplitude of the system by modifying the dynamic characteristics describing the object together with the active force were considered. For both cases, the system’s responses to the oscillation generated by harmonic force of frequencies equal to the first two forms of natural vibrations of the tested system were determined. In order to verify the determined force reducing the vibrations of the object and to create a visualization of the analyzed phenomenon, the building structure dynamics were analyzed with the use of PLM Siemens NX 12 software. The determined force parameters were implemented into the numerical model, in which the tested system was modelled, and the response time waveforms were generated with regard to the considered story. The generated waveforms were compared with the waveforms obtained in the formalized mathematical model for determining the active force reducing the vibrations. The vibrations of the tested numerical model were induced by the kinematic excitation with the maximum amplitude equal to 100 mm, which corresponds to the vibration amplitude during the earthquake with a force equal to level 5 on the Richter scale.

Smart materials are being applied more and more widely in semi-active vibration reduction systems. Actuators built with their use are characterized by nonlinearities and hysteretic effects. Their omission in mathematical descriptions may lead to deterioration of the vibration reduction systems. For that reason, it is important to take into account these negative phenomena associated with the actuators at the controller synthesis stage. One method for determining the control laws in semi-active vibration reduction systems that is frequently discussed in academic literature is “Clipped-LQR”. The present paper proposes modification of that method to allow inclusion in the controller synthesis of the hysteretic properties and other nonlinearities of an actuator. The method developed was verified by determining the controller for the semi-active suspension of a machine operator’s seat. A magnetorheological damper was used as an actuator. The dynamic properties of the foam covering of the operator’s seat were included in model. Simulation tests were performed on the vibration reduction system and function of vibration transmissibility was determined. The semi-active vibration reduction system tested was compared to a passive system. The considerations presented herein relate to the semi-active suspension of a machine operator’s seat, and the method presented may be applied to other controlled systems with many degrees of freedom.

The article provides an analysis and justification of the need to take into account the compliance of discs of overlapping and coatings when calculating frames from precast concrete structures. Previously conducted full-scale experiments showed that the rigidity of the precast overlapping with full filling of the seams, in comparison with the monolithic overlapping, decreases by 3-15 times due to the ductility of the joints. The use of refined computational models of structural solutions for frames, which take into account the compliance of the conjugations of elements, makes it possible to trace possible redistribution of efforts. Such an approach when reconstructing, it is possible to optimally select and calculate the enforcement of structure, and on new designing, to increase reliability and / or improve the economic performance of frame buildings. According to the results of analytical studies, formulas were adopted for the parameters that allow one to take into account the overall compliance of overlapping disks and coatings in computational models of building frames. Numerical studies on the computational model of a frame building made it possible to evaluate the effect of accounting for compliance on the stress-strain state of a multi-storey frame.

The continuous development of computer technology has made it applicable in many scientific fields, including research into a wide range of processes in agricultural machines. It allows the simulation of very complex physical phenomena, including grain motion. A recently discovered discrete element method (DEM) is used for this purpose. It involves direct integration of equations of grain system motion under the action of various forces, the most important of which are contact forces. The method’s accuracy depends mainly on precisely developed mathematical models of contacts. The creation of such models requires empirical validation, an experiment that investigates the course of contact forces at the moment of the impact of the grains. To achieve this, specialised test stations equipped with force and speed sensors were developed. The correct selection of testing equipment and interpretation of results play a decisive role in this type of research. This paper focuses on the evaluation of the force sensor dynamic properties’ influence on the measurement accuracy of the course of the plant grain impact forces against a stiff surface. The issue was examined using the computer simulation method. A proprietary computer software with the main calculation module and data input procedures, which presents results in a graphic form, was used for calculations. From the simulation, graphs of the contact force and force signal from the sensor were obtained. This helped to clearly indicate the essence of the correct selection of parameters used in the tests of sensors, which should be characterised by high resonance frequency.

This paper presents a new kind of vibration reduction and impact resistance isolator system based on magnetorheological technique, and its experiment results. The vibration and impact experiments were designed using MTS hydraulic loading system. There were many load cases being applied in the experiment with different mass of the model, exciting forces, and controllable electricity of MR damper (Magnetorheological Damper). The experiment results indicate that this isolator system can control the vibration response very well, especially near the natural frequency of the system; and the isolator system has a good performance in the impact experiment too, the response acceleration was evidently reduced, but the characteristic of MR damper was different form its performance in vibration experiment.
