โฆ Synopsis
An exact method for the analysis of nearly periodic structures is derived by using the U-transformation technique. This method can be applied to the investigation of the mode localization phenomena in nearly periodic systems other than for general structural analysis. When the number of subsystems approaches infinity, the present method is especially efficient. Worked examples are given to demonstrate the applications of the present method.

Premature failures or malfunctions often occur in a mechanical system that has periodically repeated subcomponents. Due to slight irregularities among subcomponents of the periodic system, maximal frequency responses of a few subcomponents become often significantly larger than those of other subcom
