One of the important characteristics of the response of nonlinear systems is the existence of subharmonic resonances. When some conditions in parameter space are satisfied. It is possible even in the presence of damping for a periodically excited nonlinear system to possess a response which is the combination of a contribution at the excitation frequency and a component at the system natural frequency. The system natural frequency being a submultiple of the excitation frequency implies that the resulting response is a subharmonic oscillation. In general, there also co-exists, for the system, a response at the excitation frequency, and initial conditions determine which of the steady-state responses is achieved in an experiment or a numerical simulation. In single-degree-of-freedom systems with harmonic excitation, depending on the type of the nonlinearity, e.g., cubic or quadratic the frequency of subharmonic response is respectively, one-third or one-half of that of the excitation frequency. Although subharmonic resonance is one of the principal characteristics of a nonlinear system the subharmonic responses of structures in the presence of internal resonances have been studied very rarely. In this work, we consider subharmonic responses in the two-mode approximation of the plate equations. It is assumed that the two modes are in one-to-one internal resonance. Constant and periodic steady-state solutions of the averaged equations are studied. Finally, the results of direct time integration of the original equations of motion are presented and compared with those obtained from the averaged equations.

A new theory of weightless sagging planer elasto-flexible cables under point loads is developed earlier by the authors and used for predicting the nonlinear dynamic response of cable-suspended linear elastic beams. However, this theory is not valid for nonlinear elastic cracked concrete beams possessing different positive and negative flexural rigidity. In the present paper, the flexural response of simply supported cracked concrete beams suspended from cables by two hangers is presented. Following a procedure established earlier, rate-type constitutive equations and third order nonlinear differential equations of motion for the structures undergoing small elastic displacements are derived. Upon general quasi-static loading, negative nodal forces, moments and support reactions may be introduced in the cable-suspended concrete beams and linear modal frequencies may abruptly change. Subharmonic resonances are predicted under harmonic loading. Uncoupling of the nodal response is proposed as a more general criterion of crossover phenomenon. Significance of the bilinearity ratio of the concrete beam and elasto-configurational displacements of the cable for the structural response is brought out. The relevance of the proposed theory for the analysis and the design of the cable-suspended bridges is critically evaluated.

The lateral vibrating motion of a railway vehicle over a certain critical speed is a well known problem in the field of train dynamics. It is known that the train equations of motion are strongly coupled and highly nonlinear with the motion and causing that it is very difficult to solve the equations simultaneously. In this paper, a 8 degree of feedom model of a railway vehicle was suggested to solve the rail vehicle lateral motion. In stead of solving the nonlinear equation simultaneously, statistical linearization technique was adopted to solve those equations. The analysis results from the statistical linearization method were directly compared with those from direct nonlinear equations and found that the linearization technique can be very effective and economical for railroad vehicle analysis. By the way, it was found that the analysis results can analytically explain the intermittent hunting phenomena which has been frequently observed in experiments.

This paper uses a recursive least squares method to estimate the projectile motion trajectory of an object in real time. The equations of motion of the object are obtained considering the air resistance which occurs in the actual experiment environment. Because these equations consider air resistance, parameter estimation of nonlinear terms is required. However, nonlinear recursive least squares estimation is not suitable for estimating trajectory of projectile in that it requires a lot of computation time. Therefore, parameter estimation for real-time trajectory prediction is performed by recursive least square estimation after using Taylor series expansion to approximate nonlinear terms to polynomials. The proposed method is verified through experiments by using VICON Bonita motion capture system which can get three dimensional coordinates of projectile. The results indicate that proposed method is more accurate than linear Kalman filter method based on the equations of motion of projectile that does not consider air resistance.

In Part 1, we derived robust stability conditions for an LTI interconnected to time-varying nonlinear perturbations belonging to several classes of nonlinearities. These conditions were presented in terms of positive definite solutions to LMI. In this paper we address a problem of synthesizing feedback controllers for linear time-invariant systems under structured time-varying uncertainties, combined with a worst-case H$_{2}$ performance. This problem is introduced in [7, 8, 15, 35] in case of time-invariant uncertainties, where the necessary conditions involve highly coupled linear and nonlinear matrix equations. Such coupled equations are in general difficult to solve. A convex optimization approach will be employed in this synthesis problem in order to avoid solving highly coupled nonlinear matrix equations that commonly arises in multiobjective synthesis problem. Using LMI formulation, this convex optimization problem can in turn be cast as generalized eigenvalue minimization problem, where an attractive algorithm based on the method of centers has been recently introduced to find its solution [30, 361. In the present paper we will restrict our discussion to state feedback case with Popov multipliers. A more general case of output feedback and other types of multipliers will be addressed in a future paper.

In this study, derivation is made of a one-grid source function for the extended Boussinesq equations of Nwogu (1993) in order to generate nonlinear waves internally. The energy velocity approach used in the line source method is verified analytically by the fractional step splitting method. The source function method is verified by generating accurately nonlinear waves as well as linear waves for horizontally one-dimensional cases. It is found that numerical solutions by the source function method are the same as those by the line source method.

A simply supported rectangular thin plate with temperature distribution varying over the thickness is analyzed. Since the thermal deflections are large compared to the plate thickness during bending and membrane stresses are developed md as such a nonlinear stress analysis is necessary. For the geometrically nonlinear, large deflection behavior of the plate, the classical von Karman equations are used. These equations are solved numerically by using the finite difference method. An iterative technique is employed to solve these quasi-linear algebraic equations. The results obtained from the suggested method are presented and discussed.

The objective of the present work is to develop a time-domain numerical method of broadband noise in a cascade of airfoils. This paper focuses on dipolar broadband noise sources, resulting from the interaction of turbulent inflows with the flat-plate airfoil cascade. The turbulence response of a two-dimensional cascade is studied by solving both of the linearised and the full nonlinear Euler equations employing accurate higher order spatial differencing, time stepping techniques and non-reflecting inflow/outflow boundary condition. The time-domain result using the linearised Euler equations shows good agreement with the analytical solution using the modified LINSUB code. Through the comparison of the nonlinear time-domain result using the full nonlinear Euler equations with the linear, it is found that the acoustic mode amplitude of the nonlinear response is less than that of the linear response due to the energy cascade from low frequency components to the high frequency ones. Considering the merits of the time-domain methods over the typical time-linearised frequency-domain analysis, the current method is expected to be promising tools for analyzing the effects of the airfoil shapes, non-uniform background flow, linear-nonliear regimes on the broadband noise due to turbulence-cascade interaction.

The free and forced nonlinear dynamic behaviors of Porous Functionally Graded Material (PFGM) plates are examined by means of a High-Order Implicit Algorithm (HOIA). The formulation is developed using the Third-order Shear Deformation Theory (TSDT). Unlike previous works, the formulation is written without resorting to any homogenization technique neither rule of mixture nor considering FGM as a laminated composite, and the distribution of the porosity is assumed to be gradually variable through the thickness of the PFGM plates. Using the Hamilton principle, we establish the governing equations of motion. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is used to compute approximations of the resulting equations; FEM is adopted using a four-node quadrilateral finite element with seven Degrees Of Freedom (DOF) per node. Nonlinear equations are solved by a HOIA. The accuracy and the performance of the proposed approach are verified by presenting comparisons with literature results for vibration natural frequencies and dynamic response of PFGM plates under external loading. The influences of porosity volume fraction, porosity distribution, slenderness ratio and other parameters on the vibrations of PFGM plate are explored. The results demonstrate the significant impact of different physical and geometrical parameters on the vibration behavior of the PFGM plate.
