Parametric instability and nonlinear oscillations of an FRP channel section column under axial load

Advances in stability, bifurcations and nonlinear vibrations in mechanical systems

“…These new frontiers are covered in this Special Issue by addressing problems related to global bifurcations [19], stability of nonlinear normal modes [20], localization of symmetric systems [21], identification of backbone curves [22], modal energy exchange [23], vibro-impact [24], internal resonance [25] and hysteretic systems [26]. Gyroscopic effects are also addressed for continuous rotor systems [27], and the nonlinear dynamics and stability of fiber reinforced polymer structures [28], and plates with nonlinear fractional damping [29], are also investigated. The question of tailoring the nonlinear response of a mechanical system is also studied from a theoretical perspective [30].…”
