Abstract

This paper investigates a vibratory system that employs Hertzian contact theory in terms of free vibration. Nonlinear impact dampers are created by using a spring, mass, and viscous damper model. The model is simulated in MATLAB software using the DAS method as a proper simulation framework. The Taguchi method is used to examine the efficacy of impact dampers for controlling structural vibrations of the structure. It is demonstrated that the optimal factors obtained can effectively suppress the structure’s unwanted vibrations. The analysis of variance is also used to indicate the most influential factor of dampers to demonstrate their ability to quench vibrations.
