Maintaining Specific Natural Frequency of Damped System despite Mass Modification by Rui Zhu, Qingguo Fei, Dong Jiang, Zhifu Cao

“…Results show that the optimal selection method has similar applicability as the existing real value method, and both methods are applicable only in cases of small damping. In addition, the absolute value method has extensive applicability in systems with either small or large damping.…”

Unified study of viscoelasticity and sound damping in hard and soft amorphous solids by Hideyuki Mizuno, Kuniyasu Saitoh, Yusuke Hara, Atsushi Ikeda

“…Here, we propose a unified theory for viscoelasticity and sound damping which are significantly different between hard and soft amorphous solids but are ultimately determined by non-Debye scaling laws of the non-phonon vibrational modes. …”

Semi-Active Damping of Vibrations. Prestress Accumulation-Release Strategy Development by A. Mroz, A. Orlowska, J. Holnicki-Szulc

“…The strain energy is converted into kinetic energy of higher modes of vibration which is suppressed with structural damping or by means of a damping device. The adaptation process essentially affects the first mode vibrations by introducing an elastic force that opposes the movement. …”

The Lyapunov Stability for the Linear and Nonlinear Damped Oscillator with Time-Periodic Parameters by Jifeng Chu, Ting Xia

“…We establish one stability criterion for the linear damped oscillator x′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x=0. Moreover, based on the computation of the corresponding Birkhoff normal forms, we present a sufficient condition for the stability of the equilibrium of the nonlinear damped oscillator x′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x+c(t)x2n-1+e(t,x)=0, where n≥2,c(t) is a continuous T-periodic function, e(t,x) is continuous T-periodic in t and dominated by the power x2n in a neighborhood of x=0.…”
