Uncertainty quantification of dynamic response in wind turbines with a geometric nonlinear tuned mass-damper-inerter (2025)
Journal Article

This paper investigates the dynamic response of a monopile wind turbine equipped with a geometric nonlinear tuned mass-damper-inerter (NTMDI) under parametric uncertainties. Several probability distributions, including normal, uniform, and Rayleigh,...

Modelling and nonlinear analysis of frictional jointed beams with inerter-based dynamic vibration absorber (2025)
Journal Article

This study investigates the effectiveness of an inerter-based dynamic vibration absorber (IDVA) in suppressing vibrations in a nonlinearly jointed beam structure. The governing partial differential equations are derived and discretized using the fini...

Performance enhancement of floating raft system by exploiting geometric nonlinearity and motion constraint in vibration isolators (2024)
Journal Article

This paper proposes a nonlinear vibration isolator with hybrid passive elements to mitigate the vibration transmission in floating raft systems. The proposed isolator employs a combination of a geometrically nonlinear linkage mechanism, an inerter, a...

Enhanced suppression of vibration response and energy transfer by using nonlinear hysteresis friction damper (2024)
Journal Article

This paper presents coupled structures based on a nonlinear hysteresis friction damper subjected to harmonic forces for vibration suppression. The steady-state responses of the structures are obtained by the Runge–Kutta method and the harmonic balanc...

A semi-active quasi-zero-stiffness vibration isolation system through controllable lateral spring stiffness (2024)
Journal Article

In this work, a semi-active quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) vibration isolation system with controllable lateral springs was proposed and its practical vibration isolation effectiveness was demonstrated through theoretical and experimental studies. A semi... Read More about A semi-active quasi-zero-stiffness vibration isolation system through controllable lateral spring stiffness.

Adaptive sliding mode attitude control of 2-degrees-of-freedom helicopter system with actuator saturation and disturbances (2023)
Journal Article

The modelling uncertainties, external disturbance and actuator saturation issues will degrade the performance and even the safety of flight. To improve control performance, this study proposes an adaptive U-model based double sliding control (UDSMC)...

Model-free robust decentralised control of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear interconnected dynamic systems (2023)
Journal Article

This study presents a generalised framework for model-free robust decentralised control (MFRDC) of interconnected MIMO dynamic systems, with the goal of significantly reducing complexity in model-based design. A model-free robust sliding mode control... Read More about Model-free robust decentralised control of multi-input-multi-output nonlinear interconnected dynamic systems.
