| Summary: | In this research, the characterization test on nonlinear vibration of a fibre-reinforced composite thin plate is studied. First, in order to improve the efficiency and precision of the test, a laser scanning vibration system is designed and developed. Then, test methods and procedures of the harmonic distortion and nonlinear time-varying damping of such thin plates are proposed from the time-domain perspective. Corresponding test methods and procedures of nonlinear vibration properties such as the hard/soft stiffness and amplitude-dependent damping are also presented from the frequency-domain perspective. Finally, the TC500 carbon fibre/resin composite plate is selected as an example for the research to carry out a case study. Potential nonlinear vibration phenomena of such plates are characterized by the proposed test methods. It has been proved that the related test system and techniques adopted in this paper can provide an important reference for the establishment of the nonlinear vibration test methodology of fibre-reinforced composite structures. |
