Abstract: | This paper presents the results of tests on free and forced harmonic vibrations in a system with two beams with structural friction taken into account. The beams are clamped together with uniform unitary pressure. The hysteresis loop describing the frictional-elastic properties of the system has a form of a parallelogram. The autor created a mathematical model of the vibrating system with two beams. During free vibrations of the system, its damping characteristics were tested by a digital simulation method. The vibration damping decrement as a function of amplitude displacement was determined. When vibrations were harmonically forced, the amplitude - frequency characteristics of the system were determined numerically. The system was used as a nonlinear vibration damper in a linear system with a harmonic force. The equations of motion of the nonlinear two-degree of freedom system were solved by means of a digital simulation method. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
