This paper describes a simple and fast numerical procedure to study the steady state responses of assembled structures with nonlinearities along continuous interfaces. The proposed strategy is based on a generalized nonlinear modal superposition approach supplemented by a double modal synthesis strategy. The reduced nonlinear modes are derived by combining a single nonlinear mode method with reduction techniques relying on branch modes. The modal parameters containing essential nonlinear information are determined and then employed to calculate the stationary responses of the nonlinear system subjected to various types of excitation. The advantages of the proposed nonlinear modal synthesis are mainly derived in three ways: (1) computational costs are considerably reduced, when analyzing large assembled systems with weak nonlinearities, through the use of reduced nonlinear modes; (2) based on the interpolation models of nonlinear modal parameters, the nonlinear modes introduced during the first step can be employed to analyze the same system under various external loads without having to reanalyze the entire system; and (3) the nonlinear effects can be investigated from a modal point of view by analyzing these nonlinear modal parameters. The proposed strategy is applied to an assembled system composed of plates and nonlinear rubber interfaces. Simulation results have proven the efficiency of this hybrid nonlinear modal synthesis, and the computation time has also been significantly reduced.
