... analytically by using the equivalent linearization technique which involves input-output relationships for the equivalent linear system, the stiffness and damping coefficients of which are response-amplitude dependent. The derived results are compared with pertinent numerical data obtained by integrating...

...Albert C. J. Luo The criteria for the grazing bifurcation of a periodically forced, piecewise linear system are developed and the initial grazing manifolds are obtained. The initial grazing manifold is invariant. The grazing flows are illustrated to verify the analytic prediction of grazing...

.... Within the framework of linear system theory, both transfer functions provide insight into isolator performance and can be used to express inherent design limitations encountered within the vibration isolation concept ( 3 ). Conventional ( a ) and block-form ( b...

.... Previous studies have shown that input shaping can be used on linear systems to produce point-to-point motion with no residual vibration. This paper extends command-shaping theory to nonlinear systems, specifically systems with Coulomb friction. This idea is applied to a PD-controlled mass with Coulomb...

... (Agrawal and Veeraklaew 3 ; Agrawal and Xu 4 ), a new approach has been proposed for solution of the optimization problem for classes of linear systems where the number of states is an integer multiple of the number of inputs. In this approach, state transformation is used to explicitly write U and X...
