Transient excitation of nonlinearly loaded resonators and observation of system responses in time domain

In this contribution a test setup is proposed which allows exciting and observing transient system responses within a nonlinearly loaded resonator. The test setup can also be modelled numerically, thus allowing to correlate measured and simulated system responses. As a main result it is observed that the presence of nonlinearities leads to an approximated rectification of the transient system responses.
