Hysteretic Behaviour of Stockbridge Dampers: Modelling and Parameter Identification

Figure 16

Real part of the impedance curve of the Stockbridge damper tested on a shaker for sweep tests in frequency with an imposed vertical translation of the clamp having a constant value of the clamp velocity equal to 0.2 m/s. Comparison between the results of the proposed model, the experimental data and the hysteretic model proposed by Sauter and Hagedorn (Sauter’s model). The experimental data and the results of Sauter’s model are from [18].
