Nonlinear system identification is a vast research field, today attracting a great deal of
attention in the structural dynamics community. Ten years ago, an MSSP paper reviewing …

With the development of the modern manufacturing industry, especially that of high-speed
and high-precision machining, higher performances of computer numerical control (CNC) …

In recent decades, nonlinear damping identification (NDI) in structural dynamics has
attracted wide research interests and intensive studies. Different NDI strategies, from …

Aeronautical structures are commonly assembled with bolted joints in which friction
phenomena, in combination with slapping in the joint, provide damping on the dynamic …

Mechanical joints in assembled structures cause energy dissipation due to micro-slip in
contact and softening effects that play an important role in the dynamic behavior of such …

In this work, we show that a recently proposed method for experimental nonlinear modal
analysis based on the extended periodic motion concept is well suited to extract modal …

Bolted joints play a more and more important role in the structure with lighter weight and
heavier load. This paper aims to provide an overview of different experimental approaches …

Based on Sanders shell theory, modeling and dynamic analysis of bolted joined cylindrical
shell were studied in this paper. When subjected to external excitations, contact state such …

Structural systems are often composed of multiple components joined together at localized
interfaces. Compared to a corresponding monolithic system these interfaces are designed to …

In recent years, a new method for experimental nonlinear modal analysis has been
developed, which is based on the extended periodic motion concept. The method is well …
