Global System Reduction Order Modeling for Localized Feature Inclusion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The development of reduced-order models remains an active research area, despite advances in computational resources. The present work develops a novel order-reduction approach that is designed to incorporate isolated ...
A Shell Description of Beams Incorporating Transverse Thickness Strain Energies for Receding Contact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The geometrically exact nonlinear deflection of a beamshell is considered here as an extension of the formulation derived by Libai and Simmonds (1998, The Nonlinear Theory of Elastic Shells, Cambridge University Press, ...
Sustained High Frequency Dynamic Instability of a Nonlinear System of Coupled Oscillators Forced by Single or Repeated Impulses: Theoretical and Experimental Results
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This report describes the impulsive dynamics of a system of two coupled oscillators with essential (nonlinearizable) stiffness nonlinearity. The system considered consists of a grounded weakly damped linear oscillator ...
A Review of Damping Models for Structures With Mechanical Joints1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In a standard design practice, it is often necessary to assemble engineered structures from individually manufactured parts. Ideally, the assembled system should perform as if the connections between the components were ...
