Abstract

The practical civil structures usually have a large number of degrees of freedom while the nonlinear components are spatially localized. The substructure method is proposed to divide the complicated structures into linear and nonlinear substructures. The linear substructures are simplified and analyzed by the condensation methods, while the expensive nonlinear analysis are localized in one or several substructures by employing the improved Newmark - β method. The linear and nonlinear substructures are subsequently reconnected by the displacement and force compatibility to calculate the dynamic responses of the global structure. In addition, the system responses calculated by the substructure method can be used in the system identification of local nonlinear structures. A numerical examples is employed to illustrate the proposed method.
