The novel time-integration technique using an extended Picard-type iteration is applied to nonlinear and linear dynamics of mechanical structures. Starting with explicit discrete-mechanics approximations, iteration and symbolic operations are performed before the time-stepping procedure. The computational advantages of the technique are demonstrated in various vibration simulations, showing substantially smaller computation times compared to traditional methods. The method is successfully implemented in Mathematica and Maple, with excellent accuracy found in comparisons with numerical time-integration tools.
Applications of a novel time-integration technique to the non-linear and linear dynamics of mechanical structures are presented, using an extended Picard-type iteration. Explicit discrete-mechanics approximations are taken as starting guess for the iteration. Iteration and necessary symbolic operations need to be performed only before time-stepping procedure starts. In a previous investigation, we demonstrated computational advantages for free vibrations of a hanging pendulum. In the present paper, we first study forced non-linear vibrations of a tower-like mechanical structure, modeled by a standing pendulum with a non-linear restoring moment, due to harmonic excitation in primary parametric vertical resonance, and due to excitation recordings from a real earthquake. Our technique is realized in the symbolic computer languages Mathematica and Maple, and outcomes are successfully compared against the numerical time-integration tool NDSolve of Mathematica. For out method, substantially smaller computation times, smaller also than the real observation time, are found on a standard computer. We finally present the application to free vibrations of a hanging double pendulum. Excellent accuracy with respect to the exact solution is found for comparatively large observation periods.
