The dynamic response of a parametrically excited cantilever beam with a pendulum is theoretically and experimentally presented. The equation of motion and the associated boundary conditions are derived considering the static friction of the rotating motion at the supporting point (pivot) of the pendulum. It is theoretically shown that the static friction at the pivot of the pendulum plays a dominant role in the suppression of parametric resonance. The boundary conditions are different between two states in which the motion of the pendulum is either trapped by the static friction or it is not. Because of this variation of the boundary conditions depending on the pendulum motion, the natural frequencies of the system are automatically and passively changed and the bifurcation set for the parametric resonance is also shifted, so that parametric resonance does not occur. Experimental results also verify the effect of the pendulum on the suppression of parametric resonance in the cantilever beam.
