This second of three volumes presents papers from the third series of NODYCON to be held in June of 2023. The conference papers reflect a broad coverage of topics in nonlinear dynamics, both traditionally placed in established streams of research as well as they stand as newly explored and emerging venues of research. These include
• Multi-scale dynamics: multiple time/space scales, large system dynamics
• Experimental dynamics: benchmark experiments, experimental methods,
instrumentation techniques, measurements in harsh environments, experimental
validation of nonlinear models
• Reduced-order modeling: center manifold reduction, nonlinear normal modes, normal
forms
• Systems with time and/or space delays
• Nonlinear interactions in multi-dof systems: parametric vibrations, multiple external and
autoparametric resonances.
• Computational techniques: efficient algorithms, use ofsymbolic manipulators, integration
of symbolic manipulation and numerical methods, use of parallel processors.
• Nonlinear system identification: parametric/nonparametric identification, data-driven
identification
• Multibody dynamics: rigid and flexible multibody system dynamics, impact and contact
mechanics, tire modeling, railroad vehicle dynamics, biomechanics applications,
computational multibody dynamics
• Fluid/structure interaction
• Nonlinear wave propagation in discrete and continuous media
