Influence of End-Stop Design Variations on Dynamic Response of Centrifugal Pendulum Vibration Absorbers

open access: yesShock and Vibration
Centrifugal pendulum vibration absorbers (CPVA) are passive order-tuned mechanisms with absorber masses swinging along their specific paths. Their motion is limited by end-stops preventing undesired impacts due to rotor-to-absorber and absorber-to ...

Attenuation of rock blasting induced ground vibration in rock-soil interface

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019
Blasting has been widely used in mining and construction industries for rock breaking. This paper presents the results of a series of field tests conducted to investigate the ground wave propagation through mixed geological media. The tests were conducted at a site in the northwestern part of Singapore composed of residual soil and granitic rock.
