Abstract
Dynamics of a system containing a linear oscillator, linearly coupled to an essentially nonlinear attachment, is considered. A damping is taken into account. It is assumed that some initial excitation implies vibrations of the linear oscillator. Envelops of the subsystem's kinetic energies are selected to use the numerical investigation of transient in the system. The parametrical optimization approach is used to obtain regions of effective energy transfer in the system parameter space. It is demonstrated that this efficient energy transfer may be obtained for a rather small value of the attachment mass.
