AFT Neural Function Approximators for 1D Nonlinear Force Laws

Miriam Goldack, Johann Groß, Malte Krack +1

Nonlinear contacts and friction strongly influence the vibration response of assembled structures, but their accurate numerical treatment is computationally demanding. The harmonic…

Enabling topography-resolving structural dynamic contact simulation

Hendrik D. Linder, David A. Najera-Flores, Robert J. Kuether +1

Damping of structures and systems is often dominated by frictional dissipation in connections, the prediction of which remains a longstanding scientific challenge. Previous studies…

A sub-structuring approach for model reduction of frictionally clamped thin-walled structures

Patrick Hippold, Johann Gross, Malte Krack

Thin-walled structures clamped by friction joints, such as aircraft skin panels are exposed to bending-stretching coupling and frictional contact. We propose an original sub-struct…

The Black Metal Tribometer: high-resolution measurement of normal load-indentation curves and partial slip hysteresis cycles

Daniel Fochler, Stefan Schwarz, Lukas Kohlmann +1

A new instrument has been designed for measuring frictional hysteresis cycles and normal load-indentation curves. The primary purpose of the BMT is the validation of more predictiv…

A coupled FE-BE multi-scale method for the dynamics of jointed structures

Hendrik D. Linder, Johann Gross, Malte Krack

The damping of built-up structures stems largely from the microscopic dry frictional interactions in the contact interfaces. The accurate prediction of friction damping has been an…

An iteration-free approach to excitation harmonization

Patrick Hippold, Gleb Kleyman, Lukas Woiwode +6

Sinusoidal excitation is particularly popular for testing structures in the nonlinear regime. Due to the nonlinear behavior and the inevitable feedback of the structure on the exci…
