This paper investigates the nonlinear mass and dam** effects of nonlinear
electromagnetic shunt dam** (N-EMSD) for vibration isolation performance enhancement …

In this paper a broadband active shunt technique for controlling vibration in piezoelectric
laminated structures is proposed. The effect of the negative capacitance controller is studied …

A method for multiple mode piezoelectric shunt dam** will be presented in this paper. The
proposed “current flowing” shunt controller has a number of benefits compared to previous …

Structural vibration can be reduced by shunting an attached piezoelectric transducer (PZT)
with an electrical impedance. Current shunt circuit designs, eg a single-mode inductor …

Periodic, shunted piezoelectric patches are applied for the control of wave propagation in
beams. The patches are shunted through resonant circuits featuring a single and multiple …

The use of both shunted piezoelectric elements and periodic arrays have been investigated
independently as well as used in conjunction to modify the vibration of a system …

A collation of the authors' latest research, this book focuses on control applications that use
piezoelectric actuators and sensors. They provide practical examples of engineering …

A negative capacitance shunt is a basic, analog, active circuit electrically connected to a
piezoelectric transducer to control the vibrations of flexural bodies. The shunt circuit consists …

This paper proposes a negative resistance electromagnetic shunt dam** vibration isolator
and investigates the effectiveness of the isolator. The isolator consists of a shunt circuit and …
