EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF MECHANICAL RESONATORS ATTACHED TO BARS.

Abstract

Mechanical elements, resonant at chosen frequencies, were attached at their nodal point to prismatic bars. The response of the bars to various vibrational inputs were studied. It was found that these elements tend to suppress the response of the bars in the vicinity of the resonant frequency. When several elements were placed on the bar, the total effect in specific geometries was stronger than the sum of the individual effects, and the frequency stop-band was broadened. (Author)
