Vibration control is extremely important for countless mechanical systems. Inerter is a two-
terminal dynamic element proposed in 2002, based on analogy between mechanical system …

There is an increasing desire in the railway industry to improve the longevity of wheels and
rails without reducing performance in other ways (eg worsening passenger comfort). One …

Shimmy dynamics of a dual-wheel nose landing gear system with torsional freeplay under
stochastic lateral wind disturbances is studied. Dynamic characteristics of the deterministic …

Inspired by the lightweight passive vibration control technology, in this work a new anti-
vibration device is proposed to significatively improve the protection for stationary …

Shimmy is described as a self-induced oscillation for the landing gear which is a threat to the
handing quality and safety of aircraft taxiing on the ground. This paper proposes a novel …

Stay cables are prone to vibrations due to their low inherent dam**. This paper presents
an approach for systematic identification of beneficial passive vibration absorber layouts …

Shimmy may occur in the vehicle normal driving process, which is a harmful motion and
should be controlled in practical engineering. In order to improve the vehicle driving and …

Motivated by the demand of improving the multi-directional vibration dynamic performance,
an inerter-based multi-directional (IMD) vibration isolator is proposed in this paper, which is …

Vehicle shimmy could occur in the running process when the wheel encounters external
disturbance, which affects the vehicle safety and stability. Four types of passive inerter …

To reduce the structure vibration caused by changes of working directions, this study
proposes a ball-screw inerter with two mechanical diodes, which divides the rotary motion of …
