Optimization on hysteresis dynamic model of metal rubber material based on dry friction damping term

Abstract

As one kind of porous elastic metal material, metal rubber is used in vibration isolation widely due to its better damping characteristic. During loading and unloading, the elastoplastic deformation and damping characteristics of this material are usually described by constructing its dynamic model. Although traditional models can describe the hysteresis performance, the accurate parameter identification of material structure under different preparation conductions is limited due to its complex expression or equivalent math form. In this paper, a dynamic hysteresis model is optimized through adding a dry friction damping term based on the micro-element analysis theory and analysis method of material mesoscopic structure. The relation among the manufacture technic, size of metal wire and vibration parameters were established, which accurately describes hysteresis characteristic of metal rubber by dry friction when the metal wires are in the state of slipping contact. The result is verified by the harmonic vibration experiment that the model has good adaptability and convenience, especially can improve the accuracy and convenience of parameter identification on the forming materials of metal rubber.
