Targeted energy transfer in a vibro-impact cubic NES: description of regimes and optimal design
Résumé
In this study, we address the response regimes of a novel Nonlinear Energy Sink (NES) that couples both nonlinearities (cubic nonlinearity and impact). In a non-smooth condition, the conventional multiple scales method is considered with impact condition. By identifying the occurrence of the collision, the asymptotic analysis of the equivalent cubic NES model and Vibro-Impact (VI) NES model can illustrate the fixed point of the Vibro-Impact Cubic (VIC) NES. Three types of VIC NES are described as a function of clearance length. The role of clearance length on the response regimes is provided, offering solid criteria for optimal design. Combined with the simulation results, our experimental observations prove the restraint effect of impact on the stability of the Strongly Modulated Response (SMR).
