“…According to the inverse sub‐structuring method, the formulations can be derived easily based on the combinations of three sets of equations, namely, the force equilibrium conditions, the displacement compatibility conditions and the dynamic equations of the coupled system. According to the inverse sub‐structuring method, the formulations for calculating the component‐level FRFs and dynamic stiffness are all derived as in the following (more details can be found in the work of Wang Z. W. et al …”
