Vibration Suppression of an Axially Moving String with Transverse Wind Loadings by a Nonlinear Energy Sink

Nonlinear targeted energy transfer (TET) is applied to suppress the excessive vibration of an axially moving string with transverse wind loads. The coupling dynamic equations used are modeled by a nonlinear energy sink (NES) attached to the string to absorb vibrational energy. By a two-term Galerkin...
