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.

Smart materials have a growing technological importance due to their unique thermomechanical characteristics. Shape memory alloys belong to this class of materials being easy to manufacture, relatively lightweight, and able to produce high forces or displacements with low power consumption. These aspects could be exploited in different applications including vibration control. A dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) can be used as an effective vibration control device. It is essentially a secondary mass, attached to an original system via a spring and damper. The natural frequency of the DVA is tuned such that it coincides with the frequency of unwanted vibration in the original system. This work aims to develop a dynamic vibration absorber with the help of shape memory alloy (SMA) springs in order to attenuate the vibration for a range of excitation frequencies. The experimental apparatus consisted of low-friction cars free to move in a rail. A shaker that provides harmonic forcing excites the system. Special attention is dedicated to the analysis of vibration reduction that can be achieved by considering different approaches exploiting temperature variations promoted either by electric current changes or by vibration absorber techniques. The results established that adaptability due to temperature variations is defined by modulus of stiffness
