Abstract: A mass–spring–damper slider excited into vibration in a plane by a moving rigid belt through friction is a major paradigm of frictioninduced vibration. This paradigm has two aspects that can be improved: (1) the contact ...

Abstract: The bolted flange joint is an important source of nonlinearity in dynamical analysis of launch vehicles, which will lead to both longitudinal and transversal responses simultaneously subject to transversal dynamic loads, ...
