    Notes: Abstract The response of a structure to a simple-harmonic excitation is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The structure consists of two light-weight beams arranged in a T-shape turned on its side. Relatively heavy and concentrated weights are placed at the upper and lower free ends and at the point where the two beams are joined. The base of the ‘T’ is clamped to the head of a shaker. Because the masses of the concentrated weights are much larger than the masses of the beams, the first three natural frequencies are far below the fourth; consequently, for relatively low frequencies of the excitation, the structure has, for all practical purposes, only three degrees of freedom. The lengths and weights are chosen so that the third natural frequency is approximately equal to the sum of the two lower natural frequencies, an arrangement that produces an autoparametric (also called an internal) resonance. A linear analysis is performed to predict the natural frequencies and to aid in the design of the experiment; the predictions and observations are in close agreement. Then a nonlinear analysis of the response to a prescribed transverse motion at the base of the ‘T’ is performed. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain six first-order differential equations describing the modulations of the amplitudes and phases of the three interacting modes when the frequency of the excitation is near the third natural frequency. Some of the predicted phenomena include periodic, two-period quasiperiodic, and phase-locked (also called synchronized) motions; coexistence of multiple stable motions and the attendant jumps; and saturation. All the predictions are confirmed in the experiments, and some phenomena that are not yet explained by theory are observed.

    Notes: Abstract An investigation is presented of the response of a three-degree-of-freedom system with quadratic nonlinearities and the autoparametric resonances ω3≈2ω2 and ω2≈2ω1 to a harmonic excitation of the third mode, where the ω m are the linear natural frequencies of the system. The method of multiple scales is used to determine six first-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations that govern the time variation of the amplitudes and phases of the interacting modes. The fixed points of these equations are obtained and their stability is determined. For certain parameter values, the fixed points are found to lose stability due to Hopf bifurcations and consequently the system exhibits amplitude-and phase-modulated motions. Regions where the amplitudes and phases display periodic, quasiperiodic, and chaotic time variations and hence regions where the overall system motion is periodically, quasiperiodically, and chaotically modulated are determined. Using various numerical simulations, we investigated nonperiodic solutions of the modulation equations using the amplitudeF of the excitation as a control parameter. As the excitation amplitudeF is increased, the fixed points of the modulation equations exhibit an instability due to a Hopf bifurcation, leading to limit-cycle solutions of the modulation equations. AsF is increased further, the limit cycle undergoes a period-doubling bifurcation followed by a secondary Hopf bifurcation, resulting in either a two-period quasiperiodic or a phase-locked solution. AsF is increased further, there is a torus breakdown and the solution of the modulation equations becomes chaotic, resulting in a chaotically modulated motion of the system.

    Notes: Abstract The nonlinear equations of motion derived in Part I are used to investigate the response of an inextensional, symmetric angle-ply graphite-epoxy beam to a harmonic base-excitation along the flapwise direction. The equations contain bending-twisting couplings and quadratic and cubic nonlinearities due to curvature and inertia. The analysis focuses on the case of primary resonance of the first flexural-torsional (flapwise-torsional) mode when its frequency is approximately one-half the frequency of the first out-of-plane flexural (chordwide) mode. A combination of the fundamental-matrix method and the method of multiple scales is used to derive four first-order ordinary-differential equations to describe the time variation of the amplitudes and phases of the interacting modes with damping, nonlinearity, and resonances. The eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix of the modulation equations are used to determine the stability and bifurcations of their constant solutions, and Floquet theory is used to determine the stability and bifurcations of their limit-cycle solutions. Hopf bifurcations, symmetry-breaking bifurcations, period-multiplying sequences, and chaotic solutions of the modulation equations are studied. Chaotic solutions are identified from their frequency spectra, Poincaré sections, and Lyapunov's exponents. The results show that the beam motion may be nonplanar although the input force is planar. Nonplanar responses may be periodic, periodically modulated, or chaotically modulated motions.

    Notes: Abstract Three nonlinear integro-differential equations of motion derived in Part I are used to investigate the forced nonlinear vibration of a symmetrically laminated graphite-epoxy composite beam. The analysis focuses on the case of primary resonance of the first in-plane flexural (chordwise) mode when its frequency is approximately twice the frequency of the first out-of-plane flexural-torsional (flapwise-torsional) mode. A combination of the fundamental-matrix method and the method of multiple scales is used to derive four first-order ordinary-differential equations describing the modulation of the amplitudes and phases of the interacting modes with damping, nonlinearity, and resonances. The eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix of the modulation equations are used to determine the stability of their constant solutions, and Floquet theory is used to determine the stability and bifurcations of their limit-cycle solutions. Hopf bifurcations, symmetry-breaking bifurcations, period-multiplying sequences, and chaotic motions of the modulation equations are studied. The results show that the motion can be nonplanar although the input force is planar. Nonplanar responses may be periodic, periodically modulated, or chaotically modulated motions.
