“…Hence, lifeline engineering should have the ability to cope with harsh environments, such as earthquake and windstorm. Particle damping applications in lifeline engineering mainly include the vibration control of wind turbines, [16] power transmission towers, [17,18] subsea jumpers, [19,20] oil-well or gas-well drilling, [178] and the vibration and noise reduction of high-speed rail wheels. [179] FIGURE 11 (a) Conceptual diagram of a momentum exchange impact dampers (MEID); (b) landing gear system with passive MEID; and (c) landing gear system with active MEID To attenuate the dynamic response and prevent the fatigue failure of wind turbines, the tuned rolling-ball damper, which contains single or multiple balls rolling in a spherical container and is mounted on the top of wind turbines, was proposed by Chen et al [16] Furthermore, Zhang et al [59] put forward a ball vibration absorber to prevent offshore wind turbines from the destruction of vibration caused by earthquakes or combined wind-wave loads.…”

“…Soil-well or gas-well drilling may have detrimental effects on the life of the drill string elements and the surface equipment owing to the accompanying significant vibrations. Hence, Velichkovich et al [178] applied a vibration-impact damper to change the dynamic conditions of the object by transporting the vibration energy from the object to the damper and enhancing the consumption of vibration energy.Nowadays, high-speed rail plays an important role in people's daily life as it brings significant convenience and efficiency to our society. However, high-speed rail may generate noise radiation owing to the excessive vibration caused by the roughness of wheel and rail running surface.…”

Particle damping, an effective passive vibration control technology, is developing dramatically at the present stage, especially in the aerospace and machinery fields. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of particle damping technology, beginning with its basic concept, developmental history, and research status all over the world. Furthermore, various interpretations of the underlying damping mechanism are introduced and discussed in detail. The theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, together with their pros and cons are systematically expounded, in which a discrete element method of simulating a multi-degree-of-freedom structure with a particle damper system is illustrated. Moreover, on the basis of previous studies, a simplified method to analyze the complicated nonlinear particle damping is proposed, in which all particles are modeled as a single mass, thereby simplifying its use by practicing engineers. In order to broaden the applicability of particle dampers, it is necessary to implement the coupled algorithm of finite element method and discrete element method. In addition, the characteristics of experimental studies on particle damping are also summarized. Finally, the application of particle damping technology in the aerospace field, machinery field, lifeline engineering, and civil engineering is reviewed at length. As a new trend in structural vibration control, the application of particle damping in civil engineering is just at the beginning. The advantages and potential applications are demonstrated, whereas the difficulties and deficiencies in the present studies are also discussed. The paper concludes by suggesting future developments involving semi-active approaches that can enhance the effectiveness of particle dampers when used in conjunction with structures subjected to nonstationary excitation, such as earthquakes and similar nonstationary random excitations. KEYWORDS discrete element method, impact damping, nonlinear energy sink, particle damping, passive control, semiactive control | INTRODUCTIONParticle damping technology is a form of an auxiliary-mass type vibration damper, wherein multiple metal, tungsten carbide, ceramic or other types of small particles are placed within the cavities of the vibrating structure, or the enclosures attached to the vibrating structure in order to mitigate the response of the primary structure. [1,2] As the primary structure vibrates, kinetic energy is significantly absorbed through the combined effects of particle-to-particle and particle-to-wall inelastic collisions and frictional losses, producing considerable damping to the primary structure. [3][4][5][6] Particle damping technology has been widely Received: 23 February 2017 Revised: used due to its conceptual simplicity, moderate cost, good durability, and temperature insensitivity. Provided that the operating temperature is below the particles' metal melting point, it could maintain normal operation. Furthermore, material such as tungsten powder can withstand the high temp...
