Abstract Recently, an interval finite element methodology has been developed to calculate envelope frequency response functions of uncertain structures with interval parameters. The methodology is based on a hybrid interval implementation of the modal superposition principle. This hybrid procedure consists of a preliminary optimization step, followed by an interval arithmetic procedure. The final envelope frequency response functions have been proved to give a very good approximation of the actual response range of the interval problem. Initially, this method was developed for undamped structures. Based on the theoretical principles of this approach, this paper introduces a new method for the analysis of… More >
