Semi-active Inerter and Adaptive Tuned Vibration Absorber
This chapter presents a novel framework to realize the semi-active inerter, and proposes a novel semi-active-inerter-based adaptive tuned vibration absorber (SIATVA). The proposed semi-active inerter can be re...

Inerter-Based Isolation System
This chapter is concerned with the problem of analysis and optimization of the inerter-based isolators based on a “uni-axial” single-degree-of-freedom isolation system. In the first part, in order to gain an i...

Analysis for Inerter-Based Vibration System
This chapter investigates the influence of inerter on the natural frequencies of vibration systems. First of all, the natural frequencies of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system and a two-degree-of-freedom...
