Traditional control strategies for vibration suppression primarily focus on reducing settling time. However, this approach may not adequately address situations where the initial peak response of the vibration poses a risk of damage. This paper prese...

This study introduces a novel double dumbbell-shaped flux-switching linear tube generator (DDFSLG) for ocean wave energy conversion. The innovative architecture features a uniquely shaped stator and translator, distinguishing it from conventional lin...

Predicting flow-induced vibration (FIV) of multiple slender structures remains a modern challenge in science and engineering due to the phenomenon’s sensitivity to layout parameters and the emergence of oscillations driven by multiple mechanism...

Strings are commonly used in engineering structures but are highly susceptible to vibrations due to their low structural stiffness and damping. Suppressing these vibrations poses a significant challenge, as existing tools and technologies are limited...

The present study concentrates on passive damping technology, in which the damping of vibrations is accomplished by the integration of lattice structures into the boring bar. To complete this process, several steps must be followed. First, the larges...

The viscoelastic behavior of functionally graded (FG) materials significantly affects their vibration performance, making it necessary to establish theoretical analysis methods. Although fractional-order methods can be used to set up the vibration di...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing proactive repair systems by enabling real-time identification of bearing faults in industrial machinery. However, traditional fault detection methods often struggle in dynamic environments due to their...

This study evaluated the suitability of the vibration dose value (VDV) and action and limit values from the EU Directive 2002/44/EC in assessing lower back health risks due to repeated shocks using common horse riding as an example. The difference be...

The optimal design methodology for a Maxwell–Coulomb friction damper is proposed to minimize the resonant vibration of dynamic structures. The simple Coulomb friction damper has the problem of zero or little damping effect of the vibration of t...

Predicting flutter remains a key challenge in aeroelastic research, with certain models relying on modal parameters, such as natural frequencies and damping ratios. These models are particularly useful in early design stages or for the development of...

In the transportation and distribution of goods, cardboard boxes are often subjected to mechanical impacts such as shocks and random vibrations, which can cause damage to the goods. In this study, static and dynamic tests on cardboard boxes were desi...

The rupture of the contact wire (CW) of a railway overhead contact line (OCL or catenary) is expected to be a rare event. However, when it occurs, and a pantograph transits under the already broken section of the CW, this can have catastrophic conseq...

Structural design in Europe should strongly follow EN 1998-1 or so called Eurocode 8 (EC8), for a seismic resistance assessment of structures. Eurocode 8 recommends two linear methods and two nonlinear methods. The nonlinear methods require some know...

This study introduces a new method to locate cracks in wind turbine blades using the support vector machine algorithm and the tangential vibration signal measured at the root blade in static conditions. The method was implemented in hardware and expe...

The vibration control in structural design has long been a critical area of study, particularly in mitigating undesirable resonant vibrations using dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs). Traditional approaches to tuning DVAs have relied on complex mathe...

Noise, vibration and harshness analyses are of great interest for the latest developments of the gearboxes of electric vehicles. Gearboxes are now the main source of vibrations, since electric powertrains are much quieter than internal combustion eng...

Driven piles are a common geotechnical solution for foundations in weak soil profiles. However, hammer impacts during the driving process can generate excessive levels of ground vibration, which, in extreme cases, can affect nearby structures and peo...

A new frequency–amplitude formula by improving an ancient Chinese mathematics method results in a modification of He’s formula. The Chinese mathematics method that expresses via a fixed-point Newton form is proven to be equivalent to the...
