The dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) is generally used to suppress the machining vibration in boring processes. The DVA consists of an additional massspringdamper sub-system, and needs accurately tuning of its natural frequency and damping ratio to match the main structure for vibration control. For obtaining the optimal performance of the DVA, the parameters of the DVA used in a boring bar is identified using modal correlation method, which combines the finite element analysis method with test modal method to validate the FEMs results. The analysis results show that the modal correlation method is an effective and simple method to accurately identify the dynamic parameters of DVA and guarantee the optimal design of the DVA for boring chatter control.

This paper presents experimental and numerical results about the effectiveness of a beam-type twin dynamic vibration absorber for a cantilevered flexible structure carrying an unbalanced rotor. An experimental laboratory prototype setup has been built and implemented in our laboratory and numerical investigations have been performed through finite element analysis. The proposed system design consists of a primary cantilevered flexible structure with an attached dual-mass cantilevered secondary dynamic vibration absorber arrangement. In addition, an unbalanced rotor system is attached to the tip of the flexible cantilevered structure to inspect the system response under harmonic excitations. Numerical findings and experimental observations have revealed that significant vibration reductions are possible with the proposed dual-mass, cantilevered dynamic vibration absorber on a flexible cantilevered platform carrying an unbalanced rotor system at its tip. The proposed system is efficient and it can be practically tuned for variety of design and operating conditions. The designed setup and the results in this paper can serve for practicing engineers, researchers and can be used for educational purposes.

Dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) is a simple and effective device for vibration absorption used in many practical applications. Determination of suitable parameters for DVA is of significant importance to achieve high vibration reduction effectiveness. This paper presents a   method to find the optimal parameters of a DVA attached to a linear damped rotary system excited by harmonic torque. To this end, a closed-form formula for the optimum tuning parameter is derived using the fixed-point theory based on an assumption that the damped rotary systems are lightly or moderately damped. The optimal damping ratio of DVA is found by solving a set of non-linear equations established by the Chebyshev's min-max criterion. The performance of the proposed optimal DVA is compared with that obtained by existing optimal solution in literature. It is shown that the proposed optimal parameters are possible to obtain superior vibration suppression compared to existing optimal formula. Extended simulations are carried out to examine the performance of the optimally designed DVA and the sensitivity of the optimum parameters. The simulation results show that the improvement of the vibration performance on damped rotary system can be as much as 90% by using DVA.

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.

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.

A field test on the dynamic performance of a 100% low-floor railway train with five cars was conducted, and a vertical vibration at around 8 Hz was mainly studied for the background of the research. The vibration around 8 Hz, defined as the abnormal vertical vibration, was proved to be due to the pitching motion of the carbodies, which significantly affected the dynamic performance of the vehicle with a maximum increase of 0.309 in the vertical Sperling index. The dynamic vibration absorber theory was applied to reduce the abnormal vibration of carbodies to around 8 Hz by building a vertical mathematic model and a three-dimensional dynamical simulation model. The results of the theoretical analysis show that the stiffness of the articulated device between carbodies is the reason for the pitching motions at around 8 Hz, and the stiffness significantly affects the main frequency of the vertical vibration of carbodies. What’s more, the application of dynamic vibration absorber theory on low-floor railway trains can reduce the vertical abnormal vibration effectively. Yet, reasonable suspension parameters are needed; otherwise, the vibration of carbodies, including the mass ratio, the suspension frequency, the damping ratio, and the suspended location would be aggravated. Optimal suspension parameters of the dynamic vibration absorber system were used in the simulation model, and the result shows a good agreement with the numerical results; the attached dynamic vibration absorber system on carbodies significantly reduces the vibration of carbodies at around 8 Hz. However, it should be noted that the dynamic vibration absorber is only effective at high-speed stage (beyond 40 km/h) where the pitching motion of carbodies is obvious; this conclusion is consistent with the results of the field test.

Addition of mass, spring, and damper as a dynamic vibration absorber to a structure that is vibrating out of the permissible vibration range can be an economic and applicable solution to reduce structure vibrations provided that the absorber is designed and adjusted properly. In practice, real structures are damped, which can make it impossible to design vibration absorbers without using numerical solutions and complicated calculations. Using dimensional analysis technique and data obtained from system simulation by MATLAB Simulink, this study aims to provide simple and reliable correlations for designing and analyzing vibration absorbers. For this purpose, the motion equations of a one-degree-of-freedom system with a vibration absorber and a harmonic force applied is simulated. Use of a set of simulation output data to minimize the maximum motion amplitude of the structure along with multiple linear regression method enables determination of unknown coefficients of the correlations derived from dimensional analysis. Studies show that mass ratio and stiffness ratio are important for designing vibration absorbers for undamped and damped structures, respectively. The correlations are validated using the methods introduced in previous studies. Also, an example of vibration absorbers is calculated for an air compressor. The vibration absorber designed by this methodology results in a reduction in the magnification factor of the compressor by 78%.

Vibrations due to mechanical excitation and internal and external fluid flow can cause fatigue in pipelines and leaks in fittings. A beam-based dynamic vibration absorber (beam DVA) is a device comprising an L-shaped beam with a concentrated mass at its free end that can be used to absorb and dissipate vibrations in the pipeline. In this paper, a mathematical equation is extracted to design the beam DVA using the dimensional analysis (DA) method and data recorded from 120 experimental tests. In the experimental studies, the pipes are fabricated in 1-inch, 2-inch, and 3-inch sizes. Each pipe is subjected to harmonic excitation at different frequencies, and the amplitude of vibration of the pipe is evaluated by changes in the geometric characteristics of beam DVA and concentrated mass. The proposed methodology is validated using the finite element method and simulation in the SIMULINK/MATLAB. The results showed that, out of the nine effective dimensionless parameters identified in pipe vibration control, mass ratio and stiffness ratio have the highest and lowest impacts on pipe vibration absorption, respectively.

Abstract In this paper, closed-form optimal parameters of inerter-based variant dynamic vibration absorber (variant IDVA) coupled to a primary system subjected to base excitation are derived based on classical fixed-points theory. The proposed variant IDVA is obtained by adding an inerter alone parallel to the absorber damper in the variant dynamic vibration absorber (variant DVA). A new set of optimum frequency and damping ratio of the absorber is derived, thereby resulting in lower maximum amplitude magnification factor than the inerter-based traditional dynamic vibration absorber (traditional IDVA). Under the optimum tuning condition of the absorbers, it is proved both analytically and numerically that the proposed variant IDVA provides a larger suppression of resonant vibration amplitude of the primary system subjected to base excitation. It is demonstrated that adding an inerter alone to the variant DVA provides 19% improvement in vibration suppression than traditional IDVA when the mass ratio is less than 0.2 and the effective frequency bandwidth of the proposed IDVA is wider than the traditional IDVA. The effect of inertance and mass ratio on the amplitude magnification factor of traditional and variant IDVA is also studied.

Abstract An energy harvesting dynamic vibration absorber is studied to suppress undesirable vibrations in a host structure as well as to harvest electrical energy from vibrations using piezoelectric transduction. The present work studies the feasibility of using vibration absorber for harvesting energy under random excitation and in presence of parametric uncertainties. A two degrees of freedom model is considered in the analytical formulation for the host along with the absorber. A separate equation is used for energy generation from piezoelectric material. Two studies are reported here, (i) with random excitation where the base input is considered to be Gaussian; (ii) parametric uncertainty is considered with harmonic excitation. Under random base excitation the analytical results show that, with the proper selection of parameters, harvested electrical energy can be increased along with the reduction in vibration of the host structure. Graphs are reported showing trade-off between harvested energy and vibration control. Whereas, Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to analyze the system with parametric uncertainty. This showed that the mean harvested power decreases with an increase in uncertainties in the natural frequency as well as damping ratio. In addition, optimal electrical parameters for obtaining maximum power for the case of uncertain parameters are also reported in this study.

The dynamic vibration absorbers have been applied to attenuate the critical or unbalanced vibration but may create the fluid-induced vibration instability in the rotor/seal system. The major purpose of this study is devoted to the effects of the dynamic vibration absorber on the nonlinear dynamic behavior and stability of the fluid-induced vibration in the rotor/seal system. The dynamic vibration absorber is attached on the shaft in the perpendicular directions. The model of the rotor/seal-dynamic vibration absorber system is established as the modified Jeffcott rotor system, and Muszynska nonlinear seal force is applied. The numerical method is used for the dynamic behavior analysis. The effects of the natural frequency and damping ratio of the dynamic vibration absorber on the dynamic behavior are discussed. The stability of the rotor/seal-dynamic vibration absorber system is judged by the eigenvalue theory. The variations of the instability threshold with the parameters of the dynamic vibration absorber are obtained. The results show that the instability threshold and instability vibration frequency are changed by the dynamic vibration absorber. The parameters of the dynamic vibration absorber must be selected carefully to avoid reducing the instability threshold and causing the instability vibration to occur in advance when the dynamic vibration absorber is applied to attenuate the critical or unbalanced vibration of the rotor/seal system.
