Mechanical-electrical analogous circuit models are widely used in electromechanical system design as they represent the function of a coupled electrical and mechanical system using an equivalent electrical system. This research uses electrical circuits to establish a discussion of simple active vibration control principles using two scenarios: an active vibration isolation system and an active ...

the aim of the paper is to analyze electro-thermo nonlinear vibration of a double-piezoelectric composite microplate-system (dpcmps) based on nonlocal piezoelasticity theory. the two microplates are assumed to be connected by an enclosing elastic medium which is simulated by pasternak foundation. both of smart composite microplates are made of poly-vinylidene fluoride (pvdf) reinforced by zigza...

A translational Lanchester damper is a device that adds damping to structure at point using series combination of viscous and mass. The problem in the practical realisation such stiffness required support mass, which changes dynamic behaviour device, introducing resonance frequency due interaction inertia forces. This vibration absorber. To achieve behaves broadly as rather than absorber, very ...

this article studied static deflection, natural frequency and nonlinear vibration of a clamped-clamped microbeam under discontinues electrostatic actuation. the electrostatic actuation was induced by applying ac-dc voltage between the microbeam and electrode plate. in contrast to previous works, it was assumed that length of the electrode plate was smaller than that of the microbeam. in additio...

The online frequency estimation of forced harmonic vibrations on a building-like structure, using nonlinear flexible vibration absorber in cantilever beam configuration, is addressed this article. Algebraic formulae to compute the excitation vibrating mechanical system solely available measurement signals position, velocity, or acceleration are presented. Fast algebraic can, thus, be implemente...

Nonlinear vibration behavior of beam is an important issue of structural engineering. In this study, a mathematical modeling of a forced nonlinear vibration of Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on nonlinear elastic foundation is presented. The nonlinear vibration behavior of the beam is investigated by using a modified multi-level residue harmonic balance method. The main advantage of the method is ...

As a tool for analyzing nonlinear large-scale structures, the harmonic balance (HB) method has recently received increasing attention in the structural dynamics community. However, its use was so far limited to the approximation and study of periodic solutions, and other methods as the shooting and orthogonal collocation techniques were usually preferred to further analyze these solutions and t...
