Abstract:In this paper, parametric forced tuned solid ball dampers (TSBD) are considered for vibration control of engineering structures in an untypical way. The special feature of the presented investigation is to evaluate the potential application of parametric forcing of the rolling cylindrical or spherical body in the runway for reducing the vertical vibrations of a vibration-prone main system. Typically, tuned solid ball dampers are applied to structures that are prone to horizontal vibrations only. The coupled no… Show more
