Abstract

The vibration of fast trains is governed by a quadratic palindromic eigenvalue problem (λ2 A1T + λ A0 + A1) x = 0, where A0, A1 ∈ Cn × n and A0T = A0. Accurate and efficient solution can only be obtained using algorithms which preserve the structure of the eigenvalue problem. This paper reports on the successful application of the structure-preserving doubling algorithms.
