Abstract To study the damage of shock vibration generated by ship hull to internal equipment under secondary explosion impact, a three-dimensional simulation model BE rubber isolator was established. The signal impact load loaded AUTODYN software. And relationship between primary and frequency, amplitude, attenuation loading found. It is revealed that law curve conforms rational function. Based...

Vibrational energy harvesting seeks to convert ambient energy into electricity when battery replacement or line transmission is infeasible or impracticable. Electromechanical mass-spring harvesters are designed to exhibit a resonance frequency close to the principal vibrational frequency of the main or environmental system; excited near to resonance, the harvesters convert the kinetic or potent...

Abstract The cubic or third-power (TP) nonlinear energy sink (NES) has been proven to be an effective method for vibration suppression, owing the occurrence of targeted transfer (TET). However, TET is unable triggered by low initial input, and thus TP NES would get failed under low-amplitude vibration. To resolve this issue, a new type with fractional nonlinearity, e.g., one-third-power (OTP) p...

Unbalance response is a common vibration problem associated with rotating machinery. For several years, researchers have demonstrated that this vibration could be greatly alleviated for machines using active magnetic bearings through active control. Many of the control strategies employed fall into a class which the authors have termed adaptive open loop control. In this paper, three algorithms...

Background vibrations can introduce error in interferometer measurements needed for SIM and its testbeds. Vibrational noise usually has an rms amplitude that is larger than the required measurement precision—for example, experiments in the MAM chamber require a precision on the order of 10 pm in the presence of floor motions on the order of 1 micron. This memo analyzes how such noise sources fe...

Internal friction and ultrasonic attenuation peaks associated with diffusionless phase transformations in alloys, such as thermoelastic martensites and others, were reviewed. They were discussed from the stand point of (1) Understanding the mechanism of the phase transformations and (2) Developing new alloy materials of high damping capacity for application to noise and vibration abatement. Pha...

Several crucial phases of the overall approach to development and design of smart structures are outlined in this paper. They are focused on control of lightweight mechanical structures with respect to active vibration and noise attenuation using piezoelectric actuators and sensors. The research experience and growing interest in development of smart structures have motivated introduction of co...

To extend the upper limiting frequency and attenuation zone of active noise and vibration control systems, multiple channel control systems are commonly used. This brings a huge amount of computational load and often multiprocessor DSP systems have to be used. In this paper, several multiprocessor system architectures are considered for the most commonly used active control algorithm, and three...
