Description
Summary:We propose waveguide absorbers (WGAs) to dampen structural vibrations of platforms supporting vibrating systems. The waveguide absorber is designed by modifing a spiral acoustic black hole (ABH) to improve its damping performance while saving installation space and weight. The proposed WGA absorbs the flexural wave propagating in a platform to its end, resulting in vibration damping in the platform. To maximize the damping capability of WGA, we analyze the structural intensity field of the platform and attach the WGA based on the intensity field. Numerical and experimental results show that large reductions of peaks in mobility are achieved using the WGAs, showing the possibility to utilize the WGA in practice.
