Constrained Optimal Control of Vibration Dampers
Optimal control of dampers has been proposed to mitigate vibration effects in mechanical systems. In many cases, systems are subject to periodic forcing and the goal is to maximize the energy dissipated by the damper. In contrast to prior work utilizing instantaneous or infinite-time−horizon optimization, this paper employs periodic optimal control to maximize the energy dissipated per cycle. F...
متن کاملFailure and strengthening of granular slopes under horizontal vibration.
We present experimental measurements of a granular slope under horizontal vibration. We use optical particle tracking to measure the motion of surface beads as the slope fails. We find that for all but the largest inclination angles, initial bead motion leads to strengthening rather than an avalanche. The initial motion of the beads is usually intermittent and evolves differently for different ...
متن کاملDynamic behaviors of supersonic granular media under vertical vibration.
We present experimental study of vibrofluidized granular materials by high speed photography. Statistical results present the averaged dynamic behaviors of granular materials in one cycle, including the variations of height, velocity and mechanical energy of the center of mass. Furthermore, time-space distribution of granular temperature which corresponds to the random kinetic energy shows that...
متن کاملVibration Control of Structures with Initially Accelerated Passive Tuned Mass Dampers under Near-Fault Earthquake Excitation
This article deals with the applicability of passive tuned mass damper (PTMD) for reducing the dynamic responses of structures under near-fault earthquake excitations. Three types of pulse-like time functions are employed to simulate the near-fault ground motion. The vibration control effectiveness of PTMDs is extensively investigated through the comparisons of response spectrum and response ti...
متن کاملEarthquake Response of Adjacent Structures with Viscoelastic and Friction Dampers
We study the seismic response of two adjacent structures connected with a dry friction damper. Each of them consists of a viscoelastic rod and a rigid block, which can slide without friction along the moving base. A simplified earthquake model is used for modeling the horizontal ground motion. Energy dissipation is taken by the presence of the friction damper, which is modeled by the set-valued...
