Abstract
We advocate for the use of Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) in mechanics. Snapshots of the temperature or displacement fields are obtained; and the DMD algorithm, which, remarkably, requires a few lines of code, is applied to matrices obtained by time shifting the snapshots. Only the higher-order modes are retained to obtain a lower-rank matrix and used for analysis. We show that DMD can be used to: predict temperature fields during transient heat conduction, estimate natural frequency of a linear elastic structure; identify the onset of plasticity in an elastic–plastic plate with a hole; and obtain a reduced-order model that describes the large deformation of a non-linear elastic structure.
