TL;DR: In this paper, a time domain non-linear model is presented to predict the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolators using a FE code, where the problem of simultaneously modeling elastic, viscoelastic and friction contributions is removed by additively splitting them.
Abstract: A time domain non-linear model is presented to predict the dynamic stiffness of rubber isolators using a FE code. The problem of simultaneously modelling elastic, viscoelastic and friction contributions is removed by additively splitting them. Viscoelastic response is modelled via a fractional derivative model, while amplitude dependency is considered through Coulomb friction elements. Nevertheless, determination of the dynamic stiffness takes long time and requires large amount of memory, as well as the estimation of the transfer function between applied excitation and resulting forces at different frequency and amplitude values. This is why a frequency domain simplified procedure is also proposed to obtain the dynamic stiffness. The technique is based on providing a generalized Maxwell model with the adequate material data set, once the dynamic strain amplitude, to which the mount is subjected, is estimated from quasi-static strain values. The methodology has proved to be efficient and easy to be applied.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the analysis of new trends and recent results carried out during the last 10 years in the field of fractional calculus application to dynamic problems of solid mechanics.
Abstract: The present state-of-the-art article is devoted to the analysis of new trends and recent results carried out during the last 10 years in the field of fractional calculus application to dynamic problems of solid mechanics. This review involves the papers dealing with study of dynamic behavior of linear and nonlinear 1DOF systems, systems with two and more DOFs, as well as linear and nonlinear systems with an infinite number of degrees of freedom: vibrations of rods, beams, plates, shells, suspension combined systems, and multilayered systems. Impact response of viscoelastic rods and plates is considered as well. The results obtained in the field are critically estimated in the light of the present view of the place and role of the fractional calculus in engineering problems and practice. This articles reviews 337 papers and involves 27 figures. DOI: 10.1115/1.4000563
