IntroductiontoIwanModelsandModalTestingforStructureswithJoints
Matthew S. AllenAssociate Professor
University of Wisconsin-Madison
Thanks to Brandon Deaner (now at Mercury Marine) for his work in this area and for creating the initial version of these slides.
Much of the damping in built up structures comes from the interfaces (joints).
Joints are nonlinear and influenced by physics at multiple length scales.
However, the response of structures with joints is often quasi-linear.

Structures with joints exhibit increased damping.
Jointed Structure vs. Monolithic Structure
Damping depends on the amplitude of the force

“macro-slip” – occurs when the stick region vanishes and there is large relative motion between the two parts.
“micro-slip” – nonlinearity associated with the slip region at the outskirts of the contact patch.

Because tests in the micro-slip regime frequently reveal that the structure as a whole often behaves modally!

Limitations The previous results all excited the system with a force that
was spatially distributed to excite a single linear mode.
Forces with other spatial distribution can cause macro-slip at a lower force level.

The damping of this structure was found to be very small (joint carries little load) and hence a modified structure was studied instead.

Nonlinearity is assumed to be active at high amplitudes and inactive at lower amplitudes
The response then becomes more linear as more of the initial nonlinear response is nullified.
Impulse responses with initial segments of varying length set to zero are compared in the frequency domain.
The nonzero portion of each impulse response begins at a point in which the response is near zero.
