Abstract
In recent years, Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology has gained increasing popularity thanks to its effectiveness, particularly, in prototyping, maintenance, and repair, as well as direct production in some cases. As such, the AM has become the immediate option for the malfunctioned parts in the navy vessels. However, the shipboard equipment suffers from a broad range of external excitations arising not only from the waves but also from the vessel’s engines. This poses a concern for the quality of the 3D printed parts. The manufacturing tolerances and dimensions can deviate from the acceptable values as a result of ship motion or shipboard vibrations. Therefore, efficient vibration isolation systems are needed for quality production. To this end, we propose a Magnetorheological-based Semi-Active Vibration Isolator (MR-SAVI for short) to solve the problem. In this study, the design concept and methodology have been presented, and the current results and next steps have been discussed. The preliminary results show that the MR-SAVI could be potentially used for the better-quality 3D printed part on Navy vessels.
