Nonlinear Targeted Energy Transfer in Mechanical and Structural Systems 2 Volume Set

by Oleg V. Gendelman, Lawrence D. Bergman, Alexander F. Vakakis, et al.

Book Overview

This monograph evolved over a period of nine years from a series of papers and presentations addressing the subject of passive vibration control of mechanical s- tems subjected to broadband, transient inputs. The unifying theme is Targeted - ergy Transfer - TET, which represents a new and unique approach to the passive control problem, in which a strongly nonlinear, fully passive, local attachment, the Nonlinear Energy Sink - NES, is employed to drastically...
