Model order reduction of piecewise linear mechanical systems using invariant cones
A. Yassine Karoui, Remco I. Leine
We present a methodology that extends invariant manifold theory to a class of autonomous piecewise linear systems with nonsmoothness at the equilibrium, providing a framework for m…

The effect of friction on the dynamics of targeted energy transfer by symmetric vibro-impact dampers
Balkis Youssef, A. Yassine Karoui, Remco I. Leine
This study investigates the nonlinear dynamics of a symmetric vibro-impact nonlinear energy sink (VI-NES) subjected to dry friction, a crucial factor that remains insufficiently ex…

Asymmetric VI-NES with dry friction: An impact map approach
Balkis Youssef, A. Yassine Karoui, Remco I. Leine
This paper examines the dynamics of a vibro-impact nonlinear energy sink (VI-NES) using a generalized impact map approach. The study incorporates asymmetry and dry friction, reflec…
