<p> Steady state response of a single degree of freedom
system with impact damper, with the main emphasis of two
impacts (symmetric or unsymmetric)/cycle motion, and its
asymptotic stability criterion are derived analytically.
Stability regions are determined for wide range of parameters
of the impact damper by using digital computer. </p> <p> Experimental study is also made to verify the
assumptions taken in the analytical solution and to obtain
general response of the system for wide range of parameters
of the impact damper. </p> <p> As a result, it is found that unsymmetric two impacts
per cycle motion exists and is stable for a wide range of
parameters of the impact damper. </p> <p> Also, it is found that three and four impacts/cycle
motions exist and are stable. </p> <p> Stability boundaries are found to be a complicated
function of the impact damper parameters. </p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)
