This study investigated the rigidity and contact state of joint structures that influenced the rotor dynamic characteristics and imbalance response, and the curve for variable structure parameters and the external load. The consideration of rotor joint structures dynamics design was also discussed. The finite-element models were established by using 3D solid elements and surface-to-surface nonlinear contact elements between the interfaces for numerical analysis. The rotor dynamic characteristics were affected by the rigidity of joint structures, and the rotor imbalance response was affected by the contact state of the interfaces. The experimentation for measuring the static rigidity and dynamic contact state of bolted joints with different experimental cycles were performed. Both numerical simulation and experimental results showed that: Firstly, the stiffness of joint structures was not constant. There was a critical load Fcr, when the external load was less than Fcr, the stiffness of joint structures was K1; when the external load was more than Fcr, the bend stiffness of joint structures would drop to K2. The critical load Fcr was influenced by the length of interfaces and preload. Secondly, the contact state of joint structure interfaces varied after a long time of operating with alternating loads. The rotor imbalance was increased by fatigue damage accumulation and irreversible deformation. The study results show that the rigidity and contact state of joint structures vary with external loads and geometry structures, and would affect the rotor system operating. It is advisable to consider the influence of the position, structural parameter and external load of the rotor joint structures on aero-engine structure dynamics design.

The dynamic characteristics and parametric instability of a rotating electrorheological (ER) sandwich beam with rotary oscillation are numerically analyzed. Assuming that the angular velocity of an ER sandwich beam varies harmonically, the dynamic equation of the rotating beam is first derived based on Hamilton's principle. Then the coupling and nonlinear equation is discretized and solved by the finite element method. The multiple scales method is employed to determine the parametric instability of the structures. The effects of electric field on the natural frequencies, loss factor, and regions of parametric instability are presented. The results obtained indicate that the ER material layer has a significant effect on the vibration characteristics and parametric instability regions, and the ER material can be used to adjust the dynamic characteristics and stability of the rotating flexible beams.

Serpentine belt is widely used in the front end accessory drive (FEAD) system of automotive engine. Experimental setup and dynamic behaviors of a FEAD system are demonstrated in this paper. Some dynamic characteristics are investigated, subjected to multifrequency excitations and different crankshaft (CRK) loads. Experimental results show that the parametric instability of belt transverse vibration occurs mainly in the frequency regions of secondary resonance, and the instability regions are shifted to lower frequencies according to the increasing of CRK speed. With the same CRK load and speed, the rotational angle of tensioner arm, the hubload of tensioner pulley and the slip rate of ALT pulley in the short-belt system are smaller than that in the long-belt system. But with the increase of CRK loads, the parametric instability of belt transverse vibration in the short-belt system is stronger than that in the long-belt system, the higher CRK speed, the greater belt transverse displacement.
