Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Detecting the position of nonlinear component in periodic structures from the system responses to dual sinusoidal excitations" ?
It is a more complicated problem the authors are planning to investigate in future studies.
Q3. What is the significance of the nonlinear component position detection method in periodic structures?
Since the positions of the nonlinear components in periodic structures often correspond to the locations of faults, the nonlinear component position detection method is of practical significance in the fault diagnosis for mechanical and structural systems.
Q4. What is the definition of a NOFRF?
NOFRFs are one dimensional functions of frequency, which allow the analysis of nonlinear systems to be implemented in a manner similar to the analysis of linear systems, and which provides great insight into the mechanisms which dominate many important nonlinear behaviors.
Q5. What is the definition of a Volterra series?
The Volterra series extends the well-known convolution integral description for linear systems to a series of multi-dimensional convolution integrals, which can be used to represent a wide class of nonlinear systems [18].
Q6. What are the types of periodic structures?
The real life systems which can be modelled as either finite or infinite, one-dimension or multi-dimension periodic structures range from the simple structures like periodically supported beams [1]~[6], plates[5][6] and building block [7].
Q7. What are the main topics of the periodic structure study?
Analysis of the free and forced vibration and the mode analysis of linear periodic structures are of particular interests [1]-[6].
Q8. What is the definition of periodic structures?
In engineering practices, there are considerable periodic structures that behave nonlinearly just because one or a few components have nonlinear properties, and the nonlinear component is often the component where a fault or abnormal condition occurs.
Q9. What is the advantage of the method?
The distinct advantage of this method is that it only needs the test data under two sinusoidal input forces, which can be readily carried out in practices.
Q10. What are the main characteristics of periodic structures?
Marathe and Chatterjee [13] have studied the Wave attenuation in one-dimension nonlinear periodic structures using harmonic balance and multiple scale method.
Q11. What is the purpose of the paper?
In this paper, a novel method is derived based on the NOFRF concept to detect the position of the nonlinear component in a periodic structure.
Q12. What is the effect of the second super-harmonics?
The second super-harmonics were used to calculate , which were extracted from the FFT spectra of the )2( 1 1, 1 F ii F jR ω +responses of the system subjected to .
Q13. What is the main difference between the two types of structures?
It is worthy to note here that in real periodic structures there are always minor non-linearities between each component and, such structures therefore should be better to model as weakly nonlinear chains which have been by Chakraborty and Mallik [12].
Q14. What is the definition of the component on the right side of the 6 )2?
According to the detection method in Section 4, it can be known that the component on the right side of the 6 )2( 1 1, 1 F ii F jR ω + ≠ )( 2 1, 2 F ii F jR ω + th mass is the nonlinear one, that is, the 7th spring component.
Q15. What is the effect of the sinusoidal forces in this case?
The sinusoidal forces used in this case are the same as the ones used in Case 1, but were imposed on the 4th mass of this system, that is J=4, so L=J.
