Stability of Forced-Damped Response in Mechanical Systems from a Melnikov Analysis

Mattia Cenedese, George Haller

Frequency responses of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with weak forcing and damping can be studied as perturbations from their conservative limit. Specifically, recent…

How do Conservative Backbone Curves Perturb into Forced Responses? A Melnikov Function Analysis

Mattia Cenedese, George Haller

Weakly damped mechanical systems under small periodic forcing tend to exhibit periodic response in a close vicinity of certain periodic orbits of their conservative limit. Specific…

Non-Existence of Periodic Orbits for Forced-Damped Potential Systems in Bounded Domains

Florian Kogelbauer

We prove Lr-estimates on periodic solutions of periodically-forced, linearly-damped mechanical systems with polynomially-bounded potentials. The estimates are applied to obtain a n…

Explicit Third-Order Model Reduction Formulas for General Nonlinear Mechanical Systems

Zsolt Veraszto, Sten Ponsioen, George Haller

For general nonlinear mechanical systems, we derive closed-form, reduced-order models up to cubic order based on rigorous invariant manifold results. For conservative systems, the…

Fast Computation of Steady-State Response for Nonlinear Vibrations of High-Degree-of-Freedom Systems

Shobhit Jain, Thomas Breunung, George Haller

We discuss an integral equation approach that enables fast computation of the response of nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems under periodic and quasi-periodic ext…

Exact Nonlinear Model Reduction for a von Karman beam: Slow-Fast Decomposition and Spectral Submanifolds

Shobhit Jain, Paolo Tiso, George Haller

We apply two recently formulated mathematical techniques, Slow-Fast Decomposition (SFD) and Spectral Submanifold (SSM) reduction, to a von Karman beam with geometric nonlinearities…

Nonlinear model identification and spectral submanifolds for multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical vibrations

Robert Szalai, David Ehrhardt, George Haller

In a nonlinear oscillatory system, spectral submanifolds (SSMs) are the smoothest invariant manifolds tangent to linear modal subspaces of an equilibrium. Amplitude-frequency plots…

An Autonomous Dynamical System Captures all LCSs in Three-Dimensional Unsteady Flows

David Oettinger, George Haller

Lagrangian coherent structures (LCSs) are material surfaces that shape finite-time tracer patterns in flows with arbitrary time dependence. Depending on their deformation propertie…

Objective Eulerian Coherent Structures

Mattia Serra, George Haller

We define objective Eulerian Coherent Structures (OECSs) in two-dimensional, non-autonomous dynamical systems as instantaneously most influential material curves. Specifically, OEC…

Attracting Lagrangian Coherent Structures on Riemannian manifolds

Daniel Karrasch

It is a wide-spread convention to identify repelling Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) with ridges of the forward finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE) field, and attracting LCS…

Shearless transport barriers in unsteady two-dimensional flows and maps

Mohammad Farazmand, Daniel Blazevski, George Haller

We develop a variational principle that extends the notion of a shearless transport barrier from steady to general unsteady two-dimensional flows and maps defined over a finite tim…

Do Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponents Detect Coherent Structures?

Daniel Karrasch, George Haller

Ridges of the Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) field have been used as indicators of hyperbolic Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs). A rigorous mathematical link between the…

Attracting and repelling Lagrangian coherent structures from a single computation

Mohammad Farazmand, George Haller

Hyperbolic Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) are locally most repelling or most attracting material surfaces in a finite-time dynamical system. To identify both types of hyperb…
