Optimal design of vibration absorber using minimax criterion with simplified constraints

In this paper, a minimax design of damped dynamic vibration absorber for a damped primary system is investigated to minimize the vibration magnitude peaks. Moreover, to reduce the sensitivity of the primary system response to variations of the forcing frequency for a two- degree-of-freedom system, t...

Description
Summary:In this paper, a minimax design of damped dynamic vibration absorber for a damped primary system is investigated to minimize the vibration magnitude peaks. Moreover, to reduce the sensitivity of the primary system response to variations of the forcing frequency for a two- degree-of-freedom system, the primary system should have two equal resonance magnitude peaks. To meet this re- quirement, a set of simplified constraint equations includ- ing distribution characteristics of the resonant frequencies of the primary system is established for the minimax objective function. The modified constraint equations have less un- known variables than those by other authors, which not only simplifies the computation but also improves the accuracy of the optimal values. The advantage of the proposed method is illustrated through numerical simulations.
