Overview

A general procedure is developed for identifying properties of structural joints. The procedure, which uses experimental response data, is considered general because it is applicable to any size or type of structural system. The present procedure, which identifies characteristics such as damping and stiffness, accommodates both linear and nonlinear joint properties and may process test data measured at arbitrary stations on the structural system. The method identifies joint characteristics by performing a global fit between predicted and measured data. It overcomes limitations of previous methods in that it can better deal with parameter-dependent constraints (e.g., gaps). The method is demonstrated with a simplified model of a bladed disk assembly having friction damping and mistuning. Lawrence, Charles and Huckelbridge, Arthur A.
