Abstract

Nonlinear Normal Modes (NNMs) have proven useful in a few recent works as a basis for comparing nonlinear models during model updating. In prior works the authors have used force appropriation to measure NNMs, but this is time consuming, generally requiring hand tuning of both the frequency in question and the strength of its harmonics. This paper explores the use of system identification, using a small set of broadband response data, to estimate a model from which the NNMs can be extracted. The Frequency Domain Restoring Force Surface (RFS) method will be used to perform identification, in which the nonlinearity of the system is assumed to be a polynomial function of the modal displacements, and a least squares problem is formed to solve for the nonlinear coefficients. Existing NNM calculation approaches can then be applied to the experimentally determined model in order to calculate the NNMs of the system. This approach is evaluated by applying it to full-field measurements from a traditional Gong, obtained using Stereo 3D Digital Image Correlation (3D– DIC). The results obtained using system identification are validated with measurements of the NNMs obtained using force appropriation and a scanning laser vibrometer.
