Summary:
A mechanical cantilever array having nonlinearity caused by magnetic forces has been produced for experimental study on intrinsic localized modes (ILMs). It was already reported that several ILMs were successfully observed and manipulated. This paper discusses the basic property of ILMs such as the coexistence and the stability. In addition, frequency response of ILM is numerically investigated for both two-and eight-degree-freedom systems.
