Abstract:The Box Assembly with Removable Component (BARC) structure has been recently introduced as a challenge problem for the study of the effects of boundary conditions on vibrational testing and modal analysis. Current efforts in studying shaker input excitations on the BARC structure have focused on either varying the degrees of freedom of the test or varying the input signal. The effects that the bolted joints introduced into the BARC's dynamical response have not been fully investigated. This study presents an i… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
