In this paper, a tuned absorber in the transversal direction is connected to a spring pendulum with multi-parametric excitation forces to control the vibration due to some resonance cases on the system. The method of multiple scale perturbation technique (MSPT) is applied to study the periodic solution of the given system near simultaneous sub-harmonic and internal resonance case. The stability of the steady-state solution near the resonance case is investigated and studied using frequency response equations. The effects of the absorber and some system parameters on the vibrating system are studied numerically. Optimal working conditions of the system are extracted when applying passive control methods. Comparison with the available published work is reported.enUniversity for NonlinearityPassive controlStabilityPitch and roll motionBIFURCATION-ANALYSISSTABILITYSYSTEMDYNAMICSMOTIONSMODELSHIPArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1007/s11071-009-9635-4
