On normal mode vibrations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
1. Introduction. In linear systems, the concept of ‘free vibrations in normal modes’ is well defined and fully understood. The meaning of this phrase is far less clear when it is applied to non-linear systems. It is the purpose here to define and examine the free vibrations in normal modes (and their stability) in certain non-linear systems composed of masses and springs and having a finite number of degrees of freedom. Of necessity, such a paper is in some degree conceptual in nature.
