Abstract
For band-structure computation, the Bloch mode synthesis (BMS) or the generalized Bloch mode synthesis (GBMS) method is a series of model-reduction computational algorithms based on the Craig-Bampton method. A hybrid Bloch mode synthesis (HBMS) method with a hybrid Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary condition is proposed in this paper. A force-based Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary condition is derived and combined with the default displacement-based Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary condition to form the hybrid Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary condition. The hybrid BMS method has been developed by combining the hybrid Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary conditions with the free-interface component mode synthesis method. The HBMS method considers the influence of higher-order modes on periodic boundary structures so that the hybrid Floquet-Bloch periodic boundary conditions can be applied to the reduced-order modal space without introducing errors, which improves the computational efficiency. According to different truncation errors, the HBMS method has been developed into three algorithms, and they each have a different precision-efficiency ratio. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the developed method outperforms in accuracy and computational efficiency compared to the default BMS/GBMS method.
