eng Abstract:
The article describes an experimental and theoretical treatment of the auto-parametric pendulum damper modelled as a double-degree-of-freedom (DDOF) system. It is strongly non-linear, with the harmonic excitation being applied in the suspension point and interpreted for instance as an excitation by wind. The stability of the motion in a vertical plane is analysed in the meaning of semi-trivial vibration. This effect of stability loss and possible stability regain is very important from practical point of view, because the motion of an damper beyond the stability limits may act negatively and thus endanger the structure itself. Special experimental frame was developed.The stability of the system is analysed experimentally and compared with theoretical results.
