AbstractA consequence of nonlinearities is a multi-harmonic response via a mono-harmonic excitation. A similar phenomenon also exists in random vibration. The power spectral density (PSD) analysis of random vibration for nonlinear systems is studied in this paper. The analytical formulation of output PSD subject to the zero-mean Gaussian random load is deduced by using the Volterra series expansion and the conception of generalized frequency response function (GFRF). For a class of nonlinear systems, the growing exponential method is used to determine the first 3rd-order GFRFs. The proposed approach is used to achieve the nonlinear system’s output PSD under a narrow-band stationary random input. The relationship between the peak of PSD and the parameters of the nonlinear system is discussed. By using the proposed method, the nonlinear characteristics of multi-band output via single-band input can be well predicted. The results reveal that changing nonlinear system parameters gives a one-of-a-kind change of the system’s output PSD. This paper provides a method for the research of random vibration prediction and control in real-world nonlinear systems.

In the recent literature, very few high-order Jacobian-free methods with memory for solving nonlinear systems appear. In this paper, we introduce a new variant of King’s family with order four to solve nonlinear systems along with its convergence analysis. The proposed family requires two divided difference operators and to compute only one inverse of a matrix per iteration. Furthermore, we have extended the proposed scheme up to the sixth-order of convergence with two additional functional evaluations. In addition, these schemes are further extended to methods with memory. We illustrate their applicability by performing numerical experiments on a wide variety of practical problems, even big-sized. It is observed that these methods produce approximations of greater accuracy and are more efficient in practice, compared with the existing methods.

Traditional measurement of multimedia systems, e.g. linear impulse response and transfer function, are sufficient but not faultless. For these methods the pure linear system is considered and nonlinearities, which are usually included in real systems, are disregarded. One of the ways to describe and analyze a nonlinear system is by using Volterra Series representation. However, this representation uses an enormous number of coefficients. In this work a simplification of this method is proposed and an experiment with an audio amplifier is shown.
