Intense cross-scale energy cascades resembling “mechanical turbulence” in harmonically driven strongly nonlinear hierarchical chains of oscillators

Abstract In the present study, the dynamics of one- and two-degree-of-freedom linear oscillators attached to hierarchical chains of oscillators coupled by strongly nonlinear cubic springs in parallel with viscous dampers are investigated. The mass, stiffness, and damping properties of...
