Abstract
AbstractThis paper presents a novel framework combining proper generalized decomposition (PGD) with the shooting method to determine the steady-state response of nonlinear dynamical systems upon a general periodic input. The proposed PGD approximates the response as a low-rank separated representation of the spatial and temporal dimensions. The Galerkin projection is employed to formulate the subproblem for each dimension, then the fixed-point iteration is applied. The subproblem for the spatial vector can be regarded as computing a set of reduced-order basis vectors, and the shooting problem projected onto the subspace spanned by these basis vectors is defined to obtain the temporal coefficients. From this procedure, the proposed framework replaces the complex nonlinear time integration of the full-order model with the series of solving simple iterative subproblems. The proposed framework is validated through two descriptive numerical examples considering the conventional linear normal mode method for comparison. The results show that the proposed shooting method based on PGD can accurately capture nonlinear characteristics within 10 modes, whereas linear modes cannot easily approximate these behaviors. In terms of computational efficiency, the proposed method enables CPU time savings of about one order of magnitude compared with the conventional shooting methods.
