In the evaluation of the vibration mitigation effect of a nonlinear energy sink (NES), the
selection of performance measures is important for the optimal design. This paper aims to …

An elliptical ring is used to implement a novel type of high-static-low-dynamic vibration
isolation. Under the compression deformation, the elliptical ring produces a nonlinear …

Abstract Quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) vibration isolators have been widely studied, because
they show excellent high static and low dynamic stiffnesses and can effectively solve low …

Bistable structures exhibit a unique snap-through behaviour, which is widely used in
different engineering disciplines. Some bistable systems have the ability to change dynamic …

The article considers the effect of joint linear and nonlinear cubic damping on dynamics of a
gyroscopic rigid rotor interacting with an electric motor with a rectilinear characteristic, taking …

This paper presents a comprehensive investigation on the seismic control efficiency and
response prediction for a hybrid isolation system, incorporating hysteretic damping (HD) and …

As the stay cables of cable‐stayed bridges become longer, parametric resonance with a
large amplitude is more easily triggered, which becomes a vibration hazard of super‐long …

Due to the interactions between ocean environmental loads, remotely operated vehicle
(ROV), suspending cable and top-end vessel motions, the dynamic responses of ROV …

Scissor-like isolation platform (SIP) with magnetorheological damper (MRD) has been
commonly studied and applied successfully in vehicle vibration isolation. This paper …

The harmonic balance method (HBM) has been widely applied to get the periodic solution of
nonlinear systems, however, its convergence rate as well as computation efficiency is …
