The vibration transmissibility properties of a honeycomb paperboard are investigated by experiments. Theanalysis of the steady-state response of mass loaded honeycomb paperboard system to harmonic base excitation ispresented in this paper. An experiment system is formulated and the vibration transmissibility data are obtained underdifferent base excitation amplitude conditions. According to the transmissibility experiments data, we can assume thatboth the stiffness and damping properties are nonlinear. The hysteresis loops of the honeycomb paperboard-mass systemare experimentally obtained, and are used to investigate the stiffness and damping properties of the system. Thehoneycomb paperboard’s uni-directional vibration transmissibility behavior is modeled by using nonlinear stiffness, thecombination of velocity proportional damping and quadratic type nonlinear damping components. The parameters in themodel are identified by use of one-term harmonic balance method and the parameters under different load condition arepresented. The model and the parameters in this paper can be used to simulate the transmissibility-frequency curvesaccurately. The model can be used for understanding the vibration transmissibility behaviors of the honeycombpaperboard, and the simulated transmissibility-frequency curves can be used for the packaging design.
