A non-linear modal analysis procedure is presented for the forced response of non-linear structural systems. It utilizes the notion of invariant manifolds in the phase space, which was recently used to define non-linear normal modes and the corresponding non-linear modal analysis for unforced vibratory systems. For harmonic forcing, a similar procedure could be formulated, simply by augmenting ...

High-Frequency Pressure Fluctuation (HFPF) is an extensively observed hydraulic phenomenon in pumped-storage power stations and water conveyance projects. The investigation of the propagation characteristics pressure perturbation great significance for safe operation facilities. In this study, a one-dimensional (1D)–three-dimensional (3D) coupling model established based on combination Method C...

With the recent advances in computer technology and digital simulation software, it is now possible to rapidly and accurately build computer models for complex linear and nonlinear dynamic systems. MATLAB is a unique system that can be used for structural and earthquake engineering problems. This study presents MATLAB tools developed for numerical process of all steps of dynamic vibration test ...

A method for analysis of essentially nonlinear vibrations of cyclically symmetric structure has been developed. Two major cases are analysed: (i) steady-state periodic multiharmonic vibrations; (ii) transient vibrations. The method allows exact calculation of the essentially nonlinear vibrations to be performed using a model for only one period of the cyclic symmetry. A rigorously proof of poss...

in this paper, a simple and efficient method for modeling and solving the equations of a rotor with any number of disks, bearings and mass unbalances is presented using the assumed modes method. this model consists of a continuous shaft, arbitrary number of mass unbalances in any axial location and phase angle, and any number of rigid disks and bearings. this arrangement is extensively used in ...
