Finite element techniques for nonlinear engineering dynamics

In this paper it is shown how the Finite element technique can be integrated with numerical tools for analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems to obtain a tool for efficient dynamic analysis of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with local nonlinearities. The developed methodology is applied to a beam system with nonlinear support, representative for this class of systems
