Abstract
This paper introduces nonlinearity into bilinear springs and proposes an efficient asymmetrical nonlinear frequency converter (NC) that has a non-reciprocal transmission, which cascades a nonlinear spring and a rope. To solve the vibration equations of both NC and the conventional NES, the Runge-Kutta method is utilized. A comparison is conducted between the amplitude attenuation rates of the NC and the conventional NES. The rate of energy dissipation is indicated by analyzing the remaining energy. According to numerical analysis results, NC has a better performance in suppressing vibration than the conventional NES within a certain range. The energy dissipation rate is higher under a wide initial condition. In addition, NC can cause energy to shift from low-frequency regions to high-frequency regions with wide frequency bands. NC has a broader frequency range and a wider range of applications. This research offers a new approach and strategy for exploring effective devices for damping vibrations.
