Design and implementation of nonlinear TMD for chatter suppression: An application in turning processes

摘要

A new-type nonlinear tuned mass damper (TMD) containing an additional element of elastic support dry friction compared with the common linear TMD is proposed to suppress machining chatter. The design and tuning process of this nonlinear TMD have used a combination of analytical modeling with experimentally measured frequency response function (FRF) of the machining system. Theoretical studies and experimental results show that the proposed nonlinear TMD can remarkably improve the machining stability by effectively suppressing the magnitude of the real part of the FRF of the damped machining system.
