Passive dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) is widely used in structural vibration reduction, and the higher efficient DVA is always required for some special situations. This paper aims to propose the novel inerter-based dynamic vibration absorbers (IDVAs) to enhance the performance of the passive DVA. First, several novel IDVAs are presented by matching the inerter with DVA in different places. Then, the closed-form optimal parameters of six kinds of IDVAs are obtained based on the classical fixed-point theory. The obtained parameters demonstrates that all the inerters connected between the primary system and absorber system do not provide improvement for the performance of DVAs, while all the inerters connected to the earth can improve the performance of DVAs. Moreover, the comparisons among the IDVAs show that the inerter connected to the earth in the grounded DVA (IR2 in this paper) performs the best performance in vibration absorption. More than 30 % improvement can be obtained from IR2 as compared with other IDVAs. Finally, the further comparison among the IDVAs under white noise excitation also shows that IR2 is superior to other IDVAs. The results may provide theoretical basis for design of the optimal IDVA in engineering practice.
