چکیده

Vibration attenuation to horizontal propagating waves by using periodic foundations is investigation. Periodic structure theory is introduced to design a new type of isolation foundations, which has a special frequency band gaps (or ‘attenuation zones’) that can barrier waves/vibrations propagation. Materials usually used in civil engineering are used to fabric periodic foundations with the unit cell of 1~2m, whose attenuation zones are obtained by investigating the dispersion relations based on the improved plane wave expansion method. Then, numerical simulation is conducted to verify the efficiency of the periodic foundation. Results show that periodic foundations have a great potential in future application in seismic isolation.

Vibration Attenuation Timoshenko Beam Based on Optimal Placement Sensors/Actuators PZT Patches with LQR-MOPSO

The main objective of this study is to reduce optimal vibration suppression of Timoshenko beam under non-periodic step and impulse inputs. Cantilever beam was modeled by Timoshenko theory and finite element numerical method. Stiffness (K), mass (M), and damping (C) matrices are extracted. Then, in order to control structure vibration, piezoelectric patches were used due to simultaneous dual beh...

Conception of a 3D Metamaterial-Based Foundation for Static and Seismic Protection of Fuel Storage Tanks

Fluid-filled tanks in tank farms of industrial plants can experience severe damage and trigger cascading effects in neighboring tanks due to large vibrations induced by strong earthquakes. In order to reduce these tank vibrations, we have explored an innovative type of foundation based on metamaterial concepts. Metamaterials are generally regarded as manmade structures that exhibit unusual resp...

Vibration Isolation via Linear and Nonlinear Periodic Devices

The current manuscripts deals with the design of passive mechanical filters for vibration attenuation a low frequencies. Traditionally, this has been addressed employing dissipation as the attenuation mechanism. While such strategy provides broadfrequency effectiveness, attenuation at any given frequency is modest. Mass and stiffness-modulated periodic systems, on the other hand, exploit disper...

LDV-based vibration measurement of a stiffened plate covered by a rubber coating with multi-layered periodic porous in air

To control underwater acoustic radiation of ships and protect against detection, coatings are attached to the vibrating wet surface of the hulls. Coatings with different pores or scatterers enclosed will attenuate vibration and suppress sound radiation with different mechanisms. However, there are very few experimental studies concerning vibration measurement of a coated structure in water, mai...

Vibration and Wave Propagation Control of Plates with Periodic Arrays of Shunted Piezoelectric Patches

Periodic arrays of shunted, piezoelectric patches are employed to control waves propagating over the surface of plate structures, and corresponding vibrations. The shunted, piezoelectric patches act as sources of impedance mismatch, which gives rise to interference phenomena resulting from the interaction between incident, reflected and transmitted waves. Periodically distributed mismatch zones...
