Calculating required substructure damping to meet prescribed system damping levels

Calculating required substructure damping to meet prescribed system damping levels

Structural synthesis is a method of calculating the transient dynamic response of an assemblage of substructures without explicitly assembling and solving a combined system model. While significant computational advantages are provided by this method, the modal parameters of the combined system a...

Naval Postgraduate School (U.S.) Structural synthesis is a method of calculating the transient dynamic response of an assemblage of substructures without explicitly assembling and solving a combined system model. While significant computational advantages are provided by this method, the modal parameters of the combined system are not explicitly calculated. Hence, a method is needed to allow the a priori determination of the substructure damping levels such that the synthesized system damping is within user-prescribed bounds. This thesis focuses on the development of such a method. 2012-03-14T17:38:16Z 2012-03-14T17:38:16Z 2007-06 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10945/3392 162136433 Approved for public release, distribution unlimited
