dc.description.abstract | Modal characteristics of non-linear system are typically studied through response to harmonic excitation and using various definitions of non-linear modes. However, few results are available for systems under broadband excitation. The end objective sought here is to generate a linear system, in some sense equivalent to the non-linear system, whose modal characteristics evolve with a level of non-linearity. The considered application is the contact non-linearity found between the tubes of heat exchangers and their support plates. Such tubes, present in nuclear plants, participate to the nuclear safety and can be significantly excited by the fluid flow, so that their dynamic behavior is critical. The turbulent nature of the flow implies broadband excitation and the small gaps between the tubes and the support plate generate very significant non-linear behavior. The proposed equivalent linear system is based on a bilateral contact law whose stiffness and damping characteristics evolve with the amplitude of excitation. A non-linear model is first validated by correlation with experiments. It is then shown that three different indicators (bandwidth of main resonance, operational modal analysis of non-linear power spectral density and correlation of operational deflection shapes) lead to similar values of contact stiffness and damping in the equivalent linear model. This model is hus shown to be a very efficient tool to analyze the impact of the amplitude dependence of the non-linear behavior in the considered system. |
