Abstract: Selecting the proper set of degrees-of-freedom (DoFs) is essential in inverse blocked force calculation. Including too many degrees-of-freedom in the computation can lead to overfitting, resulting in inaccurate force ...

Abstract: A joint between two components can be seen as a means to transmit dynamic information from one side to the other. To identify the joint, a reverse process called decoupling can be applied. This is not as straightforward ...

Abstract: The dynamics of structures with joints commonly show nonlinearity in their responses. This nonlinear behavior can arise from the local dynamics of the contact interfaces. The nonlinear mechanisms at an interface are ...
