Dynamic Bending Model Describing the Generation of Negative Stiffness by Buckled Beams: Qualitative Analysis and Experimental Verification

This work addresses the dynamic modeling of a negative stiffness absorber consisting of an assembly of curved beams. Design rules are derived from the orders of magnitude of stiffness and elastic energy stored by the negative stiffness elements. Although static and dynamic performances are widely do...
