Abstract: In this paper, responses of a mistuned bladed disk assembly are examined and compared for three types of excitations: uncorrelated narrow band random excitations, correlated narrow band random ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the statistics of the response of a mistuned bladed disk assembly subjected to random excitation. Analytical techniques are developed to compute this statistics for two ...

Abstract: In this paper, forced responses of a frictionally damped turbine blade are investigated for three different types of excitation: white noise excitation, narrowband random excitation, and deterministic ...

Abstract: Simple spring-mass systems are often deployed as vibration absorbers to quench excess vibration in structural systems. In this paper, multiple two-degree-of-freedom oscillators that translate and ...

Abstract: In this paper a characteristic force approach is developed that can be used to determine the eigenvalues and mode shapes of any arbitrarily supported linear structure carrying various lumped ...

Abstract: Disorder in nominally periodic engineering structures results in the localization of the mode shapes to small geometric regions and in the attenuation of waves, even in the passbands of the ...

Abstract: In this technical note we analyze the free vibration of

Abstract: A simple approach is proposed that can be used to analyze the free and forced responses of a combined system, consisting of an arbitrarily supported continuous structure carrying any number ...

Abstract: Many vibrating mechanical and structural systems consist of a host structure to which a number of continuous attachments are mounted. In this paper, an efficient method is proposed for determining ...

Abstract: In this paper, properly tuned damped absorbers are used to suppress excess vibration anywhere along an arbitrarily supported, damped Euler-Bernoulli beam during forced harmonic excitations. This ...
