An investigation of the effects of disorder on the dynamics of nearly periodic structures is presented. Emphasis is placed on the study of mode local~zation and vibration confinement phenomena for mistuned assemblies of coupled, multi-degree-of-freedom component systems. Perturbation methods are developed to predict the occurrence of localized modes, and strong localization is shown to occur for weak coupling between component systems. Furthermore, a "modal" coupling parameter is defined that…

Probabilistic vibration analysis of nearly periodic structures

A disordered structure with weakly coupled subsystems has localized modes with the vibratory energy concentrated in one part of the mode shape. The localization of modes may significantly affect the…

FORCED VIBRATIONS IN LARGE SPACE REFLECTORS WITH LOCALIZED MODES

The forced response in a generic class of disordered large space reflectors which have both localized and extended modes is presented. Localization is characterized by the amplitude of a global mode…

EFFECTS OF DRY FRICTION DAMPING ON THE OCCURRENCE OF LOCALIZED FORCED VIBRATIONS IN NEARLY CYCLIC STRUCTURES

Characterization of forced localization of disordered weakly coupled micromechanical resonators

Two novel characteristics of mode localization are described, including the finding that the anti-resonance loci behave as a linear function of the stiffness perturbation, and that the DRD scheme extends the linear measurement scale while sacrificing a certain amount of sensitivity.

Zero and root loci of disturbed spring–mass systems

It is shown that there exists an elliptical region in the frequency–disturbance magnitude plane from which zeros are excluded and the discrete values of the frequency and disturbance at which double poles occur are identified.

Effects of mistuning and matrix structure on the topology of frequency response curves

The stability of a frequency response curve under mild perturbations of the system's matrix is investigated. Using recent developments in the theory of singularities of differentiable maps, it is…

Accurate calculation of control-augmented structural eigenvalue sensitivities using reduced-order models

A method is presented for generating mode shapes for model order reduction in a way that leads to accurate calculation of eigenvalue derivatives and eigenvalues for a class of control augmented…
