Viscoelastic oscillator (VEO) is the basic model extracted from viscoelastic damping structures. To precisely understand the dynamic behavior of VEO, generalized modeling of fractional viscoelastic oscillator (FVEO) is proposed and its frequency response is deduced. For demonstrating
purpose, frequency response of three FVEOs is studied. As an engineering application case, the viscoelastic suspension mounted in a heavy crawler-type vehicle is considered and its vibration model is built by FVEO, whose time-domain solution is numerically derived by matrix differential theory.
The results indicate that FVEO is a valid approach to evaluate the dynamic response of viscoelastic damping structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
