Proper tuning of the pendulum, such that it counteracts the engine-order fluctuating torques acting on the rotor during operation, enables the device to effectively attenuate vibrations across the full range of engine operating speeds. However, as operating amplitudes increase, the dynamic stability and performance of these passive torsional smoothing devices are highly dependent upon the motion path defined for their pendulous masses. In fact, the pendulum natural frequency commonly shifts as a function of their swing amplitude. Tautochronic motion paths can eliminate this resonant frequency shift as excitation levels increase and can thus overcome the common detuning issues associated with existing paths within the epicycloid family. At present, approximate tautochrone motion paths for CPVAs are derived using simplifying assumptions, which uncouples the pendulum and rotor dynamics. In this paper, using variational calculus, a system tautochrone motion path that accounts for the pendulum to rotor inertial coupling is derived. Its use results in tautochronic motion of the entire oscillatory system including both pendulum and rotor. Numerical simulations of the system forced response show that a system tautochrone motion path has distinct vibration control advantages, including enhanced stability and vibration correction performance. Most fundamentally, a new concept of order-tuning in these systems is for the first time identified, where a pendulum following a system tautochrone motion path retains a fixed order tuning for all feasible system energy levels. That is, the paper presents a more exact order tuning concept, expressed in terms of the square root of system energy, thereby accounting for pendulum motion in addition to rotor speed effects on tuning order.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50147,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications","volume":"555 1","pages":"Article 129994"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145049179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the classical theory of semigroups of linear operators, we prove well-posedness and provide conditions under which strong stability implies polynomial or exponential stability. From a practical point of view, this means that, in the applications of the Borichev-Tomilov and Gearhart-Prüss theorems, the resolvent estimates do not need to be verified for systems which satisfy the conditions; instead, it is enough to check a certain matrix condition associated with the coefficients of the system. Our general formulation includes, as special cases, many known results on Bresse and Timoshenko systems. In particular, our condition for exponential stability generalizes the well-known equal wave speed condition and provides a systematic way to derive this type of condition from the coefficients of the system.
