Abstract
A solution method is presented to solve the
eigenproblem arising in the dynamic analysis of non-proportional
damping systems with symmetric matrices. The
method is based on the use of Lanczos method to generate
one pair of Krylov subspaces of trial vectors, which is then
used to reduce a large eigenvalue problem to a much smaller
one. The method retains the n order quadratic eigenproblem,
without the need to use the method of matrix augmentation
traditionally used to cast the problem as a linear
eigenproblem of order 2n. In the process, the method
preserves the sparseness and symmetry of the system
matrices and does not invoke complex arithmetic, therefore,
making it very economical for use in solving large problems.
Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the good
efficiency and accuracy of the method.
