Targeted Energy Transfer in Linear Continuous Systems with Single- and Multi-DOF NESs

  • Chapter
Nonlinear Targeted Energy Transfer in Mechanical and Structural Systems

Part of the book series: Solid Mechanics and Its Applications ((SMIA,volume 156))

  • 2865 Accesses

Up to now we have considered passive targeted energy transfer from linear discrete systems of coupled oscillators to attached SDOF and MDOF NESs. In this chapter we extend the study of TET dynamics to linear elastic continua possessing attached NESs attached to their boundaries. Our study builds on the formulations, methodologies and results discussed in previous chapters, in an effort to demonstrate that appropriately designed and placed essentially nonlinear local attachments may affect the global dynamics of elastic systems to which they are attached. More importantly, we show that such nonlinear attachments can passively absorb and locally dissipate significant portions of shock-induced energy inputs from directly excited linear continua. This paves the way for practical implementation of TET and the concept of NES to flexible systems encountered in engineering practice.
