Abstract
The response of a finite, inhomogeneous, Kelvin viscoelastic solid under arbitrary excitation is determined by modal analysis. Through the reciprocal theorem of viscoelasticity, vibration modes of the Kelvin viscoelastic solid satisfy orthogonality conditions and the system response under any excitation is represented in a modal series. This formulation technique is illustrated on an asymmetric, classical, circular plate containing Kelvin inclusions excited by a constant transverse force rotating at constant speed. The viscosity of the inclusions suppresses the instability excited at supercritical speed in the elastic plate, but it may or may not suppress instability excited at subcritical speed depending on the geometry and location of the Kelvin inclusions.
