Proposal and numerical feasibility study of a novel multi-modal and multi-axis dynamic vibration absorber consists of spherical viscoelastic material containing embedded ball-like mass
This paper proposes a novel DVA (Dynamic Vibration Absorber) consisting of a ball-like mass embedded in a spherical viscoelastic material to meet practical demands for the multi-modal and multi-axis vibration reduction against elastic vibrations of structures. This DVA is called eMDVA (embedded Mass...
