Stochastic response determination of structural systems modeled via dependent coordinates: a frequency domain treatment based on generalized modal an…
2019
Generalized independent coordinates are typically utilized within an analytical dynamics framework to model the motion of structural and mechanical engineering systems. Nevertheless, for complex systems, such as multi-body structures, an explicit formulation of the equations of motion by utilizing generalized, independent, coordinates can be a daunting task. In this regard, employing a set of redundant coordinates can facilitate the formulation of the governing dynamics equations. In this setting, however, standard response analysis techniques cannot be applied in a straightforward manner. For instance, defining and determining a transfer function within a frequency domain response analysis…
Form-perturbation theory for higher-order elliptic operators and systems by singular potentials
2020
We give a form-perturbation theory by singular potentials for scalar elliptic operators onL2(Rd)of order 2mwith Hölder continuous coefficients. The form-bounds are obtained from anL1functional analytic approach which takes advantage of both the existence ofm-gaussian kernel estimates and the holomorphy of the semigroup inL1(Rd).We also explore the (local) Kato class potentials in terms of (local) weak compactness properties. Finally, we extend the results to elliptic systems and singular matrix potentials.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Semigroup applications everywhere’.
Deterministic and Random Vibration of Linear Systems with Singular Parameter Matrices and Fractional Derivative Terms
2021
Both time- and frequency-domain solution techniques are developed for determining the response of linear multi-degree-of-freedom systems exhibiting singular parameter matrices and endowed with derivative terms of noninteger orders modeled as rational numbers. This is done based on the Moore-Penrose matrix inverse theory, in conjunction with a state variable formulation and with a complex modal analysis treatment. It is worth noting that, for the class of systems considered herein, this treatment also yields decoupled governing equations, thus facilitating further their numerical solution. Next, a generalization of the standard frequency-domain input-output (excitation-response) relationship…
Random vibration of linear and nonlinear structural systems with singular matrices: A frequency domain approach
2017
Abstract A frequency domain methodology is developed for stochastic response determination of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) linear and nonlinear structural systems with singular matrices. This system modeling can arise when a greater than the minimum number of coordinates/DOFs is utilized, and can be advantageous, for instance, in cases of complex multibody systems where the explicit formulation of the equations of motion can be a nontrivial task. In such cases, the introduction of additional/redundant DOFs can facilitate the formulation of the equations of motion in a less labor intensive manner. Specifically, relying on the generalized matrix inverse theory, a Moore-Penrose (M-P) based f…
Response determination of linear dynamical systems with singular matrices: A polynomial matrix theory approach
2017
Abstract An approach is developed based on polynomial matrix theory for formulating the equations of motion and for determining the response of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) linear dynamical systems with singular matrices and subject to linear constraints. This system modeling may appear for reasons such as utilizing redundant DOFs, and can be advantageous from a computational cost perspective, especially for complex (multi-body) systems. The herein developed approach can be construed as an alternative to the recently proposed methodology by Udwadia and coworkers, and has the significant advantage that it circumvents the use of pseudoinverses in determining the system response. In fact, ba…
