In this paper, the vibration suppression capabilities of magnetorheological (MR) layer in smart beams is investigated. A three-layered beam including MR elastomer layer sandwiched between two elastic layers is considered. By assuming the properties...

This paper focuses on vibration suppression of frames using an efficient method for determining the sensor/actuator locations. Utilizing the structural dynamics theories, the suitable locations of actuator and sensor are determined based...

at ER elastomers and guarantees low vibration amplitude over a wide frequency range. The novel idea of
using ER elastomers for vibration suppression of rotor systems can be fairly extended to other applications which sufer from
unwanted high...

This paper investigates the free vibration analysis of double-beam system coupled by a two-degree-of-freedom mass-spring system. In order to generalize the model, the main beams are assumed to be elastically restrained ...
