Abstract

A collision with clearance causes obvious nonlinearity in structures, and dynamic response analysis plays an important role in predicting the mechanical performance of the structure. The general form of the nonlinear dynamic equation of a structure and the clearance modeling method are introduced, and the clearance-caused nonlinear term is expressed by nonlinear impact forces. Different clearance collision models of local nonlinear structures are presented. The relationships between different impact forces and clearances are analyzed by two rigid sphere models. The solution methods of the nonlinear dynamic equation are compared by a vibro-impact response, such as the Newmark-β method combined with the Newton–Raphson method, generalized α method and precise integration method. The single degree of freedom model is adopted to compare the efficiency of the different numerical integration algorithms. Taking the beam structure model as a case study, the accurate nonlinear collision model with clearance is established by using the impact force model with high accuracy, and the accuracy of the model is verified by comparing the reference model with the numerical model.
