Abstract
In the present paper, the optimization problem of the dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs) for suppressing vibrations in thin plates within the wide frequency band is investigated. It is considered that the plate has simply supported edges and is subjected to a concentrated harmonic force. The vibration suppression is accomplished by the implementation of multiple mass–spring absorbers in order to minimize the plate deflection at the natural frequencies of the plate without absorbers. The governing equations of the plate equipped with DVAs for both isotropic and FG plates are derived and solved numerically and analytically. The formulation of the problem is capable of optimizing the \(L_{2}\) norm of the plate deflection at the wide frequency band with respect to mass, stiffness and position of each absorber attachment point. In this study, the possibility of simultaneous absorption of one or multiple natural frequencies of the plate without any absorbers is also studied. Some numerical results are also presented.

Using the first equation of (19) for \(N=1\) we have
where \(\theta _{{11}}=\theta \left( x_{{1}},y_{{1}},x_{{1}},y_{{1}},\alpha _{rs} \right) ,\theta _{{01}}=\theta \left( x_{{0}},y_{{0}},x_{{1}},y_{{1}},\alpha _{rs} \right) \) and \(\epsilon =\mathop {\text {lim}}\limits _{\alpha {mn}\rightarrow \alpha _{rs}}\left( \alpha _{mn}^{{4}}-\alpha _{rs}^{{4}} \right) .\) Therefore for \(p=r\) and \(q=s\), the numerator is \(4F_{0}^{*}\left\{ f_{rs}\left( x_{0},y_{0} \right) +\mu _{1}\left( \alpha _{rs} \right) \left[ \theta _{01}f_{rs}\left( x_{1},y_{1} \right) -\theta _{11}f_{rs}\left( x_{0},y_{0} \right) \right] \right\} \) and the dominator \(-\mu _{1}\left( \alpha _{rs} \right) \left[ f_{rs}\left( x_{1},y_{1} \right) \right] ^{2}\) and thus we deduce that
The above coefficient is certainly bounded. Viewing Eq. (18), for \(N=2\) we also have
By splitting the singular and regular terms of the predefined function \(\psi \left( x,y,z,v,\alpha _{rs} \right) \) as \(\psi \left( x,y,z,v,\alpha _{rs} \right) =\theta \left( x,y,z,v,\alpha _{rs} \right) +\frac{f_{rs}\left( x,y \right) f_{rs}\left( z,v \right) }{\epsilon },\) the above equalities at \(\alpha =\alpha _{rs}\) are rewritten as follows
where
Substituting the above relations into the second equation of (19) results in
And finally, for \(m\rightarrow r\) and \(n\rightarrow s\) we conclude that
Again, it can be seen that the above coefficient is bounded.
