- (1)
- The alterations in the state of structural connections primarily manifest as a decrease in connection stiffness near the resonance frequency, with the reduction being more pronounced in the simply supported condition than the fixed condition. The “tracking” phenomenon caused by the abrupt change of damping and the variation in resonance frequency results in a relatively stable vibration response amplitude over a larger frequency range.
- (2)
- As the contact pressure and friction diminish, the frequency response curve progressively flattens, indicating a resonance frequency range. The peak response frequency is observed at the lower end of this resonance range, which is situated below the linear natural frequency.
- (3)
- When the connection stiffness is reduced, the resonance peaks broaden and diverge, exhibiting the characteristics of internal resonance in nonlinear systems. This feature becomes increasingly pronounced as the stiffness decreases.
- (4)
- The magnitude of external excitation serves as a direct factor in inducing nonlinear softening of the connection. When the excitation amplitude is minimal, its impact on the connection state remains limited. As the external excitation escalates, the structure’s frequency response curve exhibits a resonance region.
- (5)
- Various sub-beam combinations display distinct nonlinear characteristics when used in multi-beam structures. In asymmetric configurations, alterations in connection states are primarily induced by excitation and predominantly manifest at the junctions of shorter beams. As the excitation point approaches the structural center, it is more likely to cause significant changes in connection states, thereby broadening the range of resonant intervals.
