Sh. Chen et al., EIGENSOLUTION REANALYSIS OF MODIFIED STRUCTURES USING PERTURBATIONS AND RAYLEIGH QUOTIENTS, Communications in numerical methods in engineering, 10(2), 1994, pp. 111-119
A new eigensolution reanalysis method for modified structures is devel
oped and presented based on the usual first-order perturbation scheme
and the Rayleigh quotients. By this method, the accuracies of the eige
nsolutions of the modified structures computed by perturbation methods
are improved. A numerical example is presented and the accuracies of
the usual first-order perturbation method, second-order perturbation m
ethod, William B. Bickford method and the proposed method are compared
