Vibration analysis of simply supported beam-type vibration absorber

Beam-type structures have wide applications, for example civil or mechanical engineering. A simply supported beam is widely used in many areas like bridges and double-beam structures. Excessive vibration in such structures especially at the resonance can cause the structural failure. There are two t...
