Abstract

A numerical method for constructing nonlinear normal modes for systems with internal resonances is presented based on the invariant manifold approach. In order to parameterize the nonlinear normal modes, multiple pairs of system state variables involved in the internal resonance are kept as 'seeds' for the construction of the multi-mode invariant manifold. All the remaining degrees of freedom are constrained to these 'seed' variables, resulting in a system of nonlinear partial differential equations governing the constraint relationships, which must be solved numerically. The solution procedure uses a combination of finite difference schemes and Galerkin-based expansion approaches. It is illustrated using two examples, both of which focus on the construction of two-mode models. The first example is based on the analysis of a simple three-degree-of-freedom example system, and is used to demonstrate the approach. An invariant manifold that captures two nonlinear normal modes is constructed, resulting in a reduced-order model that accurately captures the system dynamics. The methodology is then applied to a more large system, namely an 18-degree-of-freedom rotating beam model that features a three-to-one internal resonance between the first two flapping modes. The accuracy of the nonlinear two-mode reduced-order model is verified by time-domain simulations.
