Vibration absorbers are frequently used to suppress the excessive vibrations in structural systems. In this paper, an imposing nodes technique is applied for vibration suppression of Euler-Bernoulli beams subjected to forced harmonic excitations by means of multiple dynamic vibration absorbers. A procedure based on Taguchi's method is proposed to determine the optimum absorber parameters to suppress the vibration amplitude of the beams. Numerical tests are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.

H ∞ optimization of the dynamic vibration absorbers is a classical optimization problem, and has been already solved more than 50 years ago. It is a well-known solution, but we know this solution is only an approximate one. Recently, one of the authors has proposed a new method for attaining the H∞ optimization of the absorber in linear systems. The new method enables us to obtain the exact algebraic solution of the H∞ optimization problem of the absorber. In this paper, we first apply this method to the design optimization of a viscous damped (Voigt type) absorber and a hysteretic damped absorber attached to undamped primary systems. For each absorber, six different transfer functions are taken here as performance indices to vibration suppression or isolation. As a result, we found the closed-form exact solutions to all transfer functions. The solutions obtained here are then compared with those of the approximate ones. Finally, we present the closed-form exact solutions to the hysteretic damped absorber attached to damped primary systems.

Although the vibration suppression effects of precisely adjusted dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs) are well known, multimass DVAs have recently been studied with the aim of further improving their performance and avoiding performance deterioration due to changes in their system parameters. One of the present authors has previously reported a solution that provides the optimal tuning and damping conditions of the double-mass DVA and has demonstrated that it achieves better performance than the conventional single-mass DVA. The evaluation index of the performance used in that study was the minimization of the compliance transfer function. This evaluation function has the objective of minimizing the absolute displacement response of the primary system. However, it is important to suppress the absolute velocity response of the primary system to reduce the noise generated by the machine or structure. Therefore, in the present study, the optimal solutions for DVAs were obtained by minimizing the mobility transfer function rather than the compliance transfer function. As in previous investigations, three optimization criteria were tested: the H∞ optimization, H2 optimization, and stability maximization criteria. In this study, an exact algebraic solution to the H∞ optimization of the series-type double-mass DVA was successfully derived. In addition, it was demonstrated that the optimal solution obtained by minimizing the mobility transfer function differs significantly at some points from that minimizing the compliance transfer function published in the previous report.

The vortex-induced vibration may cause fatigue of a bridge structure, affecting the safety of vehicles and the comfort of pedestrians. Inerter is a two-terminal device, which has been applied in many areas. This paper studies the problem of suppressing the vortex-induced vibration of a bridge by using an inerter-based dynamic vibration absorber (IDVA). The performances in terms of the suspension travel and the vertical displacement of the bridge with different IDVAs in suppressing vortex-induced vibration are compared, and the effect of the installation position of IDVA on the performance of suppressing vortex-induced vibration is shown. The performance indexes for the vertical displacement of six IDVA arrangements are obtained by using an iterative method, where the performance indexes for the vertical displacement are minimized by using the optimization toolbox in a commercial software. The result shows that the optimal installation positions and the number of suitable installation positions are affected by the resonant mode. Among the six arrangements, one arrangement is identified to have the best performance of suppressing vortex-induced vibration. All the six arrangements have reduced the suspension travel performance.

<p class="1Body">In this paper, variable stiffness damped absorbers are used to isolate the substructures of Euler-Bernoulli beam, modelled as lumped masses, from vibrations. The novel algorithm is developed that can be used to determine the required absorber masses and resonance frequencies to impose nodes at selected locations on beam with the constraint of vibration amplitude of absorber mass. Numerical simulations are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Experimental test is conducted on a cantilever beam with two absorbers to verify the numerical results.</p>

This paper addresses the problem of active vibration suppression for a class of Euler-Bernoulli beam system. The objective of this paper is to design a hybrid temporal-spatial differential controller, which is involved with the in-domain and boundary actuators, such that the closed-loop system is stable. The Lyapunov’s direct method is employed to derive the sufficient condition, which not only can guarantee the stabilization of system, but also can improve the spatial cooperation of actuators. In the framework of the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) technology, the gain matrices of hybrid controller can obtained by developing a recursive algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated by applying a numerical simulation.
