Dynamic neutralizers, also known as dynamic absorbers, are efficient means of mitigating vibrations in structures. They have been particularly effective in addressing broad-band passive vibration control in structures with high modal density through the use of multi-degrees of freedom (MDoF) and viscoelastic materials (VEMs). Therefore, sandwich-type or constrained-layer beams can offer great potential when used as MDoF control devices. However, there is limited literature exploring these structures as auxiliary systems, with coupling typically assumed to be single-point and limited to only translational degrees of freedom (DoFs). In this context, this article presents a methodology to determine the dynamic behavior of a compound system, coupling the displacement and rotation DoFs between a metal structure–referred to as the primary system–and a MDoF auxiliary system. The coupling is achieved by utilizing an equivalent dynamic stiffness obtained at the base of the auxiliary system through ANSYS finite-element software, providing a robust and comprehensive approach. A Matlab code transfers the auxiliary system's geometry and properties to ANSYS, where the dynamic stiffness at the base is determined and subsequently coupled to the primary system. A MDoF auxiliary system of the constrained-layer type with VEM was studied, and both single-point and distributed coupling were analyzed. The auxiliary system was attached to a cantilever metal beam for numerical and experimental validation. The proposed generalized equivalent dynamic stiffness model accurately estimates the response of the compound system, offering a 25% reduction in response computation time compared to the finite-element model of the complete compound system. This methodology enables the accurate representation of compound system dynamics while minimizing computational time, making it valuable for the optimal design of a set of MDoF viscoelastic dynamic neutralizers.
