Nonlinear normal modes and their application in structural dynamics

Publication:2500861





Summary: Recent progress in nonlinear modal analysis of structural systems is reported. Systematic methods are developed for generating minimally sized reduced-order models that accurately describe the vibrations of large-scale nonlinear engineering structures. The general approach makes use of nonlinear normal modes that are defined in terms of invariant manifolds in the phase space of the system model. An efficient Galerkin projection method is developed, which allows for the construction of nonlinear modes that are accurate out to large amplitudes of vibration. This approach is successfully extended to the generation of nonlinear modes for systems that are internally resonant, and for systems subject to external excitation. The effectiveness of the Galerkin-based construction of nonlinear normal modes is also demonstrated for a realistic model of a rotating beam.
