As the most important parts of rotating machinery, rotors are also the most prone to
mechanical vibrations, which may lead to machine failure. Correction is only possible when …

This article presents and validates a general framework to build a linear dynamic Finite
Element-based model of large flexible structures for integrated Control/Structure design. An …

We present a new methodology to derive a linear model of flexible multibody system
dynamics. This approach is based on the two-port model of each body allowing the model of …

The derivation of a linear fractional representation (LFR) model for a flexible, spinning and
uniform Euler-Bernoulli beam is accomplished using the Lagrange technique, fully capturing …

A new approach is proposed to predict the dynamic behavior of rotor-bearing systems in
time domain using the combined methodologies of finite elements and transfer matrices …

The main objective of this study is to propose a methodology for building a parametric linear
model of flexible multibody systems (FMS) for control design. This new method uses a …

The combined boundary element-transfer matrix method is proposed for plate bending
problems. In this method, a transfer matrix is obtained, from the sytem of equations derived …

The combined finite element-transfer matrix method has the advantage of reducing the size
of a matrix to less than that obtained by the ordinary finite element method. The analytical …

Combined finite element-transfer matrix (FE-TM) methods are an efficient technique for the
dynamic analysis of chain-like structures. They offer the advantages of an automatic …

The combined use of the finite element and transfer matrix is applied to the transient
analyses of the structures under various excitations. An approximation is also introduced in …
