The boring operation is a very critical manufacturing process which created surface roughness, tool wear, noise and vibration related problems. A deep internal boring operation in a workpiece is a classic example of chatter-prone machining. This review focuses on study of new damping composite materials for boring tool and introduces new advance viscoelastic materials for vibration attenuation ...

Anti-vibration gloves have been used in real workplaces to reduce vibration transmitted through hand-held power tools to the hand. Generally materials used for vibration attenuation in gloves are resilient materials composed of certain synthetic and/or composite polymers. The mechanical characteristics of the resilient materials used in anti-vibration gloves are prone to be influenced by enviro...

Trial blasting is conducted to identify the characteristics of the blasting of the applicable ground before production blasting and to investigate various problems posed by blasting. The methods and pattern of production blasting are determined based on an analysis of the results of trial blasting. The bedrock in Jeju Island, South Korea is formed through the volcanic activities unlike the inla...

In the present work, FGM shells integrated with magnetostrictive layers acting as distributed sensors and actuators are modeled to control vibration attenuation of FGM shells with simply supported boundaryconditions. To achieve a mechanism for actively control of the oscillation amplitude of the integrated structure, a negative velocity proportional feedback control law is implemented in the st...

One of the significant engineering applications of the elastic metamaterial (EMM) is for low-frequency vibration attenuation because of its unusual low-frequency bandgap behavior. However, the forbidden gap from many existing EMMs is usually of narrow bandwidth which limits their practical engineering applications. In this paper, a chirallattice-based EMM beamwith multiple embedded local resona...

Detailed measurements of vibration transmission from an underground rail line in Sydney and a line in a deep cutting in Perth have recently been conducted. The propagation characteristics of these two ground types are very different, and neither fits comfortably with standard theoretical models of vibration transmission through a uniform ground. In Sydney, the results can generally be modelled ...

This paper presents a new approach for the use of piezoelectric materials, PVDF and PZT, for vibration attenuation of a planar parallel manipulator. Since lightweight linkages of parallel manipulators deform under high acceleration/deceleration, such motion induced vibration would have to be damped quickly to reduce settling time of the platform position. An active damping controller is develop...

ABSTRCT: Elastic bearings have been used on simply supported bridges on high-speed railway in Taiwan to isolate train-induced vibration. However, their influence on dynamic behavior of the vehicle and bridge has not been fully investigated, and their vibration attenuation has not been quantificationally discussed. In this study, spring-damper elements with 12 degrees of freedom are established ...

The need to design blast resistant civilian structures has arisen due to aggressor attacks on many civilian structures around the world. Achieving vibration and wave attenuation with locally resonant metamaterials has attracted a great deal of consideration due to their frequency dependent negative effective mass density. In this paper, metaconcrete, a new material with exceptional properties i...
