Abstract

This paper deals with eigenvalue problems involving uncertain but non-random interval stiffness and/or mass matrices. If one views the deviation amplitude of the interval matrix as a perturbation around the nominal value of the interval matrix, one can solve the standard eigenvalue problem of the interval matrix by applying the interval extension to the matrix perturbation method. In this study, the interval perturbation approximating formula is presented for evaluating interval eigenvalues of the interval matrix. Inextensive computational effort is a characteristic of the proposed method. The illustrative numerical examples are provided.
