讲座摘要：
This course is intended as an introduction to the sources and effects of nonlinearity in structural dynamics and to its intentional use in design. Starting with simple examples of physical phenomena, we will review a variety of techniques for the modeling and analysis of dynamical systems, concentrating on principles and quantitative results rather than mathematical detail. The unifying theme of our approach is the management of energy transfer within mechanical systems. Several recent research projects will be discussed to illustrate these methods. A variety of experimental results will be presented, from both proof-of-concept academic experiments and tests of larger-scale, practical systems for building shock mitigation and aeroelastic stability enhancement. We will conclude with an overview of work being conducted in collaboration with ZJUT faculty and students, including the propagation of waves in strongly nonlinear systems.
