Abstract Nonlinear energy sink (NES) can passively absorb broadband from primary oscillators. Proper multiple NESs connected in parallel exhibit superior performance to single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) NESs. In this work, a linear coupling spring is installed between two so as expand the application scope of such vibration absorbers. The absorption and parallel-coupled system response induced by...

A review of previous studies shows that there are two general views on how to determine demand in structures through incremental nonlinear static analysis. In the first view, multi-modal methods are used to determine demand in structures. In this view, the applied load pattern is applied to the structure according to the shape of each vibration mode, assuming that the structure deformation foll...

Understanding of dynamics of the speech production process may lead to a breakthrough in increasing the quality of synthesized voice and contribute to medical science with respect to treating voice disorder. However, little is known about mechanisms of speech dynamics, in particular about complex interactions of glottal flow and vocal fold vibration. In this paper, a two-dimensional viscoelasti...

Linear vibration absorbers are a valuable tool used to suppress vibrations due to harmonic excitation in structural systems. Limited evaluation of the performance of nonlinear vibration absorbers for nonlinear structures exists in the current literature. The state of the art is extended in this work to vibration absorbers in their three major physical implementations: the mechanical vibration a...

In this work, analytical solutions are provided to the nonlinear equations arising in thermal and flow-induced vibration in fluid-conveying structures using Galerkin-differential transformation method with cosine aftertreatment technique. From the analysis, it was established that increase of the length and aspect ratio of the fluid-conveying structures result in decrease the nonlinear vibratio...

In this paper, the nonlinear vibration behavior of a rotor with asymmetric shaft considering misalignment is studied. The system consists of a rectangular shaft and a disk which is connected to a motor through a flexible coupling. In order to consider higher order deformations, nonlinear Bernoulli beam is used for modeling the shaft. Gibbons’ equations are utilized to apply misaligned coupling ...

Vibrations of a nonlinear oscillator with an attached pendulum, excited by movement of its point of suspension, have been analysed in the paper. The derived differential equations of motion show that the system is strongly nonlinear and the motions of both subsystems, the pendulum and the oscillator, are strongly coupled by inertial terms, leading to the so-called autoparametric vibrations. It ...

analyzing the nonlinear vibration of beams is one of the important issues in structural engineering. according to this, an impressive analytical method which is called modified iteration perturbation method (mipm) is used to obtain the behavior and frequency of a cantilever beam with geometric nonlinear. this new method is combined by the mickens and iteration methods. moreover, this method don...
