Abstract
The well-known central difference predictor method used for the analysis of nonlinear systems, subjected to transient dynamic loads, is modified by incorporating Rayleigh's damping into the governing incremental equation of motion. The new time-stepping scheme requires a starting algorithm for both the first and second time-steps, and can effectively be used to analyse the nonlinear damped systems in general.
