Two degree-of-freedom oscillator coupled to a non-ideal source

Abstract

© 2018, Springer International Publishing AG. In this chapter the two degree-of-freedom structure excited with a non-ideal source is considered. The model corresponds to real energy harvester system (Felix et al. 2009), centrifugal vibration machine (Dantas and Balthazar 2006), tuned liquid column damper mounted on a structural frame (Felix et al. 2005a), portal frame (Felix et al. 2013) and portal frame foundation type shear building (Felix et al. 2005b), rotor-structure system which moves in-plane (Quinn 1997), etc.
