Sommario

Si descrivono le esperienze condotte su un oscillatore elastoplastico a un grado di libertà. Si mettono in evidenza alcune differenze del comportamento reale con le risultanze teoriche, queste vengono spiegate attraverso lo studio di un modello teorico elastoplastico con caratteristica intrinseca curvilinea anzichè bilineare.

Summary

We describe an experimental research on the behavior of an elastoplastic oscillator with one degree of freedom and we point out some differences with respect to the results of studies on a bilinear isteretical model. Therefore a mechanical scheme of an elastoplastic oscillator endowed with a continuous skeleton intrinsec curve is studied and the results of the theory agree with the experimental ones.
