In this paper, a mechanical model of a transformer–bushing with an inerter isolation system (IIS) is established. An IIS is composed of an inerter element, a damping element, and a spring element connected in parallel between the same two terminals ...

Semi-active suspension with semi-active inerter and semi-active damper [PDF]
This paper investigates the application of semi-active inerter in semi-active suspension. A semi-active inerter is defined as an inerter whose inertance can be adjusted within a finite bandwidth by on-line control actions.

Modeling, Testing, and Characteristic Analysis of a Planetary Flywheel Inerter
We propose the planetary flywheel inerter, which is a new type of ball screw inerter. A planetary flywheel consists of several planetary gears mounted on a flywheel bracket. When the flywheel bracket is driven by a screw and rotating, each planetary gear

Risk-informed optimization of the tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) for the seismic protection of multi-storey building structures [PDF]
The tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) is a recently proposed passive vibration suppression device that couples the classical tuned mass-damper (TMD), comprising a secondary mass attached to the structure via a spring and dashpot, with an inerter.

Force transmissibility and vibration power flow behaviour of inerter-based vibration isolators [PDF]
This paper investigates the dynamics and performance of inerter-based vibration isolators. Force / displacement transmissibility and vibration power flow are obtained to evaluate the isolation performance. Both force and motion excitations are considered.
