Mathematical Modeling of a Transient Vibration Control Strategy Using a Switchable Mass Stiffness Compound System by Diego Francisco Ledezma-Ramirez, Neil Ferguson, Adriana Salas Zamarripa

“…The semiactive control strategy is applied in a piecewise linear compound model and involves an on-off logic to connect and disconnect a secondary mass stiffness system from the primary isolation device, with the aim of providing high energy dissipation for lightly damped systems. The compound model is characterized by an energy dissipation mechanism due to the inelastic collision between the two masses and then viscous damping is introduced and its effects are analyzed. …”
