Journal Article
Nonlinear dynamic response of an isolation system with superelastic hysteresis and negative stiffness
2022
Overview
The negative stiffness exhibited by bi-stable mechanisms together with the tunable superelasticity offered by shape memory alloy (SMA) wires can enhance the dynamic resilience of a structure in the context of vibration isolation. The effects of negative stiffness and superelastic damping in base-isolated structures are here explored by carrying out an extensive study of the nonlinear dynamic response via pathfollowing, bifurcation analysis, and time integration. The frequency-response curves of the isolated structure, with and without the negative stiffness contribution, are numerically obtained for different excitation amplitudes to construct the acceleration and displacement transmissibility curves. The advantages of negative stiffness, such as damping augmentation and reduced acceleration/displacement transmissibility, as well as the existence of rich bifurcation scenarios toward quasi-periodicity and chaos, are discussed.
