Bistable Nonlinear Energy Sink Using Magnets and Linear Springs: Application to Structural Seismic Control

Nonlinear energy sink (NES) has proven to be very effective in reducing the vibration response of structures. In this paper, a magnetic bistable nonlinear energy sink (BNES) that composed of a guided moving mass attached with linear springs and permanent magnets is proposed. To assess the seismic co...
