Abstract
This article addresses a particular realization of a compact bistable nonlinear absorber based on the concept of nonlinear energy sink. The article presents both a detailed description of the absorber mechanics and an illustration of the targeted energy transfer between the absorber and a linear system. The experimental results are accompanied with the numerical simulations. Beside practical improvements linked to the features of absorber design, the obtained results stay in line with those found for simpler realizations of a bistable nonlinear energy sinks.
