Vibro-Impact Effects in Limited Vibrations of String Lattices with Massive Nodes

Resumo

The dynamics of a lattice structure consisting of strings and point bodies at the places of their intersection, as well as limiters that can be struck by these bodies (nodes), is investigated. Equations of motion are given, and methods for their solution are pointed out. In particular, the existence of standing waves characterized by synchronous impacts of all nodes in the power excitation mode is experimentally established. The results of analysis of such movements are presented.
