..., whose effects are important to study. In this paper, we extend the study presented in Ref. [ 12 ] by taking into account a second harmonic term in the external excitation. Among many others, a straightforward and efficient impact damper is the inverted pendulum; a literature survey on some...

...R. Vinayaravi; K. Jayaraj; D. Kumaresan; A. K. Asraff The objective of this paper is to investigate how higher damping is achieved by energy dissipation as high-frequency vibration due to the addition of impact mass. In an impact damper system, collision between primary and impact masses cause...
