NONLINEAR TRANSIENT FINITE ELEMENT SIMULATIONS OF BEAM PARAMETRIC RESPONSE INCLUDING QUADRATIC DAMPING

Nonlinear parametric response of a flexible cantilever beam is simulated. In the simulations, lateral response of the beam due to an imposed axial harmonic base displacement excitation is calculated. The response frequency is approximately half the input frequency. The transient simulations include...
