Abstract: The nonlinear flexural vibrations of thin circular rings are analyzed by assuming two vibration modes and then applying Galerkin’s procedure on the equations of motion. The results show that ...

Abstract: The techniques of holographic interferometry are applied to study the high-frequency transverse vibrations of a simply supported rectangular plate. Over 110 vibration modes were identified using ...

Abstract: The relatively new experimental technique of holographic interferometry is described, and time-average holography is discussed. Time-average holography has been applied to study high-frequency ...

Abstract: A general method is presented for using experimental data to verify math models of “mixed” dynamic systems. The term “mixed” is used to suggest applicability to combined systems which may ...
