A Study on the Analysis of Non linear system using Higher order spectrum

고차스펙트럼을 이용한 비선형 시스템의 해석에 관한 연구

This thesis is concerned with the development of useful engineering techniques to detect and analyze nonlinearities in mechanical systems. The methods developed are based on the concepts of higher order spectra, in particular the bispectrum and trispectrum, and the Volterra series. The study of higher order statistics has been dominated by work on the bispectrum. The bispectrum can be viewed as a decomposition of the third moment(skewness) of a signal over frequency and as such is blind to symmetric nonlinearities.
