... is proved to be accurate for a sufficiently small vibration amplitude especially when imperfection exists. The results from Runge-Kutta method are plotted to form the typical backbone curves. ^* E-mail: hhuang3@my.uno.edu 3 5 2015 29 7 2015 Large-amplitude vibration...

...He Huang; David Hui This paper solves the modified-Duffing ordinary differential equation for large-amplitude vibration of imperfect angle-ply rectangular composite plate. Viscous damping is then introduced in the derivation and analyzed under four different boundary conditions (combining two out...
