Passive dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs) are often used to suppress the excessive vibration of a large structure due to their simple construction and low maintenance cost compared to other vibration control techniques. A new type of passive DVA consists of two pendulums connected with spring and dashpot element is investigated. This research evaluated the performance of the DVA in reducing the vibration response of a two degree of freedom shear structure. A model for the two DOF vibration system with the absorber is developed. The nominal absorber parameters are calculated using a Genetic Algorithm(GA) procedure. A parametric study is performed to evaluate the effect of each absorber parameter on performance. The simulation results show that the optimum condition for the absorber frequencies and damping ratios is mainly affected by pendulum length, mass, and the damping coefficient of the pendulum's hinge joint. An experimental model validates the theoretical results. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed technique is able be used as an effective alternative solution for reducing the vibration response of a multi degree of freedom vibration system.

Large machine and structure can not be normally treated as lumped parameter system. Such machine or structure must be broken down to individual beams or panels the motion of which must be analysed before an absorber system can be designed for each element. The absorber may be a lumped parameter system or a continuous system. One of the most common elements in a machine or structure is the cantilever, and in this paper is considered the design of a continuous parameter absorber to reduce the transverse vibrations of a beam. So this paper describes the method to obtain the accurate information about combined continuous beam system with DVA. This information is obtained from the combined system's receptance. and this paper shows the convenience and useful informations when design the dynamic vibration absorber with the combined system's receptance.

The combined rotational and translational dynamic vibration absorbers (DVA) with no dampers for the beam vibration control can effectively isolate the vibration within the external excitation force region. This paper investigates the damping efficacy for the combined rotational and translational dynamic vibration absorbers to impose some robustness to the DVA system for the excitation force frequency variation. The beam is assumed to be subjected to a concentrated harmonic excitation force. The solution to the problem is found based on Galerkin method.

In this paper, the dynamic characteristic of vibrating system which has translational and rotational degrees of freedom is studied. The moment of inertia of the system is modeled here as the inerter and the equivalent model to the system is proposed using dynamic stiffness method. It is shown that the size of inerter plays a major role to determine the dynamic characteristic of the system. This two degree of freedom system(DOF) is applied as a dynamic vibration absorber(DVA) to the elimination of single peak of main body. The solution for the undamped DVA is presented in analytical form while the damped DVA is designed using fixed point theory. The numerical examples are presented for verifying the methods.

The problem of reducing the level of vibrations in structures arises in various branches of technology. For the calculation of systems equipped with DVAs, the frequencies of the protected system's free vibrations are determined first. In most practical problems system have to be considered continuous systems. It is important to obtain the detailed information about not the first frequency and the mode but anothers corresponding to it. So, this paper describes the method to obtain the accurate information about the combined discrete system. This information is obtained from the combined system's receptance. This paper shows the convenience when design the dynamic vibration absorber with the combined system's receptance.

일반적으로 동흡진기는 하나의 가진진동수에 의해 진동하는 감쇠가 작은 기계나 구조물에 효과적으로 적용되고 있다 대부분의 동흡진기의 적용 사례는 주 진동이 유발되는 부위, 또는 진동을 억제해야하는 부위에 직접적으로 동흡진기를 부가하여 효과를 얻는 방식을 택하고 있다. 그러나 절연기를 설치 할 수 없는 경우라든지, 절연기로는 한계가 있는 경우, 이미 설치가 완료된 기계 시스템에 절연 변경이 곤란한 경우 또는 국부 진동모드에 대한 진동저감을 할 때는 동흡진기에 대해 보다 일반적인 접근 방법이 필요하며 질량과 스프링계를 부착하기 힘든 경우나 억제시키려는 부위에 설비나 기기의 성능을 저해할 수 있는 경우에는 부득이 그 위치를 변경시켜 줘야 할 경우가 생긴다 할 수 있다.(중략)
