contents The Tribomechadynamics Research Challenge (TRC) was a blind prediction of the vibration behavior of a thin plate clamped on two sides using bolted joints. The first bending mode's natural frequency and damping ratio were requested as function of the amplitude, starting from the linear regime until high levels, where both frictional contact and nonlinear bending-stretching coupling become relevant. The predictions were confronted with experimental results in a companion paper; the present article addresses the experimental analysis of this benchmark system. Amplitude-dependent modal data was obtained from phase resonance and response controlled tests. An original variant of response controlled testing is proposed: Instead of a fixed frequency interval, a fixed phase interval is analyzed. This way, the high excitation levels required outside resonance, which could activate unwanted exciter nonlinearity, are avoided. Consistency of testing methods is carefully analyzed. Overall, these measures have permitted to gain high confidence in the acquired modal data. The different sources of the remaining uncertainty were further analyzed. A low reassembly-variability but a moderate time-variability were identified, where the latter is attributed to some thermal sensitivity of the system. Two nominally identical plates were analyzed, which both have an appreciable initial curvature, and a significant effect on the vibration behavior was found depending on whether the plate is aligned/misaligned with the support structure. Further, a 1:2 nonlinear modal interaction with the first torsion mode was observed, which only occurs in the aligned configurations.
