General Motion of an Inclined Impact Damper With Friction

Item

Title
General Motion of an Inclined Impact Damper With Friction
Description
Here an exact approach to analyze the stable periodic N impacts/period motion of an inclined damper with friction and collisions on either one or both sides of a container with identical and nonidentical coefficients of restitutions is presented. The proposed theory can be easily modified for the cases of a pressurized damper mass and a damper mass oscillating on a spring supported platform. The comparison of theoretical predictions with previous results and with· results obtained by numerical simulation of motion on a digital computer indicates a good agreement. Few results are presented.
