Equivalent force control method for generalized real-time substructure testing with implicit integration.

This paper presents a new method, called the equivalent force control method, for solving the nonlinear equations of motion in a real-time substructure test using an implicit time integration algorithm. The method replaces the numerical iteration in implicit integration with a force-feedback control...
