Steady solu-tion* and stabilhy in the region* of param etric reaonance of first and sacond order* are datermined. Solutions outskJe the region* of pa ram etric resonances are approximated by two limit cycles.

Key Word*: Shock absorber*, Experimental data, Computer ized simuietion
The usefulness of the impact damper in eliminating vibratk>nt 1* studied anaiytically and experimentally. Laboratory modeli of vibrating system* are constructed to evatuate the performance of the impact damper in reducing or eliminating forced and fraa vibrations. A Computer simuietion of a single dagrea-of-freedom primary system in free yibration amploying an impact damper is constructed for the same purpose. Laboratory free yibration results are compered to the Computer simuietion in order to judge rts accurecy.
Key Word*: Parametric excłtetion. Coulomb friction. Para metric resonance, Crltłcal apaads
In paramatrically excKed *elf-excitatlon system* with dry friction, approximat# Solutions outsida tha region* of parametric resonance of sacond order are obteined. Approximate Solutions in the neighborhood of parametric resonance of first order era obteined and crKicał frequencies where beat ybrations occur and diwppaar cen ba datarminad by tha point* of intarseetlon of thase *o lut toni and parametric resonance curves of first order. By numsrical resuKs K is ascartalnad that this determinetlon method of crklcal fre-quencies has high accurecy and tha interactlon between parametric excKation and se!f-exched yibration is dlscusaad.
