This paper presents analytical models, as well as numerical and experimental verification of intrinsic dissipation due to thermoelastic loss in tuning-fork resonator. The thermoelastic analytical governing equations are created for resonator vibrating at drive-mode and sense-mode, and thermoelastic vibration field quantities are deduced. Moreover, the theoretical values are verified that coinci...

This chapter presents an application of zero-power controlled magnetic levitation for active vibration control. Vibration isolation are strongly required in the field of high-resolution measurement and micromanufacturing, for instance, in the submicron semiconductor chip manufacturing, scanning probe microscopy, holographic interferometry, cofocal optical imaging, etc. to obtain precise and rep...

Machine tool vibration is the main reason resulting in machining quality of parts. In this paper a magnetorheological damping device for Machine tool was developed. On the basis of structural design, the damping device is researched of Machine Tool System Control Based on Magneto-rheological Dampers with Fuzzy Control algorithm. Finally a satisfied result is obtained. By analyzing the result, t...

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in activation of the musculoskeletal system in response to soft-tissue vibrations with different compression conditions (externally applied) in a drop-jump landing task. Twelve trained male participants were instructed to perform drop-jump landings from 3 heights in compression shorts (CS) and regular shorts without compression (CC). External...

There are no optimal vibration damping designs for safe movement at the present stage of development high-speed rail transport. The purpose improving existing structures is their ability to simultaneously dampen both longitudinal and transverse vibrations. For dynamic research, an analytical method has been developed calculating stresses deformations sidewall frame electric locomotive bogie in ...

In this paper, following a two-stage methodology, the differential quadrature element (DQE) model of a three-story frame structure is updated for the vibration analysis. In the first stage, the mass and stiffness matrices are updated using the experimental natural frequencies. Then, having the updated mass and stiffness matrices, the structural damping matrix is updated to minimize the error be...

Passive shunt damping involves the connection of an electrical shunt network to a structurally attached piezoelectric transducer. In recent years, a large body of research has focused on the design and implementation of shunt circuits capable of significantly reducing structural vibration. This paper introduces an efficient, light weight, and small-in-size technique for implementing piezoelectr...

This paper presents results of experiments carried out on free vibrations of a cable with an attached magnetorheological (MR) damper. The attention is focused on the analysis of amplitude dependent damping of a cable with an MR damper operating in passive and controlled modes. In the case of the passive system, damping characteristics are nonlinear and display relevant drawbacks of the system. ...
