Abstract

This study is concerned with the theory and application of a tuneable dynamic absorber. The dynamic characteristics of the tuneable dynamic absorber are discussed in terms of the mass ratio, natural frequency of the main structure, natural frequency of a dynamic absorber and excitation frequency. We proposed a semi-active dynamic absorber with a natural frequency that can change through the use of repulsive forces produced by permanent magnets and electromagnetic forces induced by current flowing through a coil. A simple active control algorithm is implemented in the LabView software and the experimental results showed that when the proposed semi-active dynamic absorber is used with the active control algorithm, the vibrations of a structure can be more effectively suppressed than when a passive dynamic absorber with a fixed natural frequency is used.
