Isolated resonances and nonlinear damping
Abstract
We analyze isolated resonance curves (IRCs) in a single-degree-of-freedom system with nonlinear damping. The adopted procedure exploits singularity theory in conjunction with the harmonic balance method. The analysis unveils a geometrical connection between the topology of the damping force and IRCs. Specifically, we demonstrate that extremas and zeros of the damping force correspond to the appearance and merging of IRCs.
