This paper presents the results of an investigation addressing the effects of mistuning on the lower modes of vibration of a simple bladed-disk model. The phenomena of dual modes, also known as mode splitting, is studied using holographic interferometry and strain gage measurements under nonrotating and rotating conditions. Resonant amplitudes, mode shapes, and natural frequencies of the disk model were determined, without deliberately mistuning the disk. The tests were then repeated with the disk deliberately mistuned to varying degrees, paying particular attention to the second diameter (2N) dual modes. Additionally, tests were conducted on the disk at a rotational speed of 2000 rpm, in an effort to gain insight as to the vibratory characteristics of the disk under rotating conditions.

An effective method for analysis of periodic forced response of nonlinear cyclically symmetric structures has been developed. The method allows multiharmonic forced response to be calculated for a whole bladed disk using a periodic sector model without any loss of accuracy in calculations and modeling. A rigorous proof of the validity of the reduction of the whole nonlinear structure to a sector is provided. Types of bladed disk forcing for which the method may be applied are formulated. A multiharmonic formulation and a solution technique for equations of motion have been derived for two cases of description for a linear part of the bladed disk model: (i) using sector finite element matrices and (ii) using sector mode shapes and frequencies. Calculations validating the developed method and a numerical investigation of a realistic high-pressure turbine bladed disk with shrouds have demonstrated the high efficiency of the method.

A new method has been developed for sensitivity calculations of modal characteristics of bladed disks made of anisotropic materials. The method allows the determination of the sensitivity of the natural frequencies and mode shapes of mistuned bladed disks with respect to anisotropy angles that define the crystal orientation of the monocrystalline blades using full-scale finite element models. An enhanced method is proposed to provide high accuracy for the sensitivity analysis of mode shapes. An approach has also been developed for transforming the modal sensitivities to coordinate systems used in industry for description of the blade anisotropy orientations. The capabilities of the developed methods are demonstrated on examples of a single blade and a mistuned realistic bladed disk finite element models. The modal sensitivity of mistuned bladed disks to anisotropic material orientation is thoroughly studied.

An analytical method is adopted to determine modal characteristics of non-linear spinning discs. The disc is assumed to be isotropic and rotating under steady-state conditions. The effects of amplitude and rotating speed on natural frequencies are determined. The developed procedure is also capable of analysing natural frequencies of linear free vibration, which is independent of amplitude. Attention is confined to determine natural frequencies, mode shapes, stress distributions, and critical speeds for different numbers of nodal diameters. The developed procedure does not consider modes of vibration corresponding to nodal circles. Validity of this procedure is verified by comparing some of the computed results with those established for certain cases.

A study is made to establish the basic vibration characteristics of bladed disc assemblies. An analysis is presented and used to predict the natural frequencies and mode shapes of uniform bladed discs. It is found that there are many more natural frequencies than those indicated by a study of the blade cantilever modes. The effects of blade detuning are studied and found to give rise to irregular and complex modes of vibration. Consideration of the vibration characteristics under typical operating excitation conditions shows that a detuned system is susceptible to many more resonances than is an equivalent tuned system.

This paper reports on the application of experimental optical methods to study vibration of the centrally clamped disc. The natural frequencies and mode shapes with zero rotational speed are analyzed. Influence of rotational velocity to shifting natural frequencies was investigated with optical derotator. To evaluate shifting of natural frequencies run up analysis were measured. In run-up analysis the frequencies of centrally clamped disc considering increased rotational speed are obtained. Obtained waterfall plots show vibration behavior of spinning disc.

A posttensioned reinforced concrete bridge, slated for demolition, was tested to obtain its dynamic properties. The 10 year old bridge consisted of a continuous flat slab deck of variable thickness having a total width of 103 ft (31.39 m) and spans of 28 ft 6 in. (8.69 m), 71 ft 0 in. (21.64 m), and 42 ft 6 in. (12.95 m). The entire bridge was skewed 10°50′ and the deck was slightly curved in plan.The mode shapes, natural frequencies, and damping ratios for the lowest five natural modes of vibration were determined using sinusoidal forcing functions from an electrohydraulic shaker. These modes, located at 5.7, 6.4, 8.7, 12.0, and 17.4 Hz, were found to be highly dependent on the lateral properties of the bridge deck. Damping ratios were determined from the widths of resonance peaks. The modal properties from the steady state excitation were compared with those obtained from measurements of traffic-induced vibrations and good agreement was found between the two methods.

Aero-elastic excitation can result in excessive blade vibration, which can cause blades to fail in high cycle fatigue (HCF). A severe aero-elastic failure can result in a complete blade separation and loss of thrust and loss of a blade can mean the loss of an aircraft. The primary aeromechanical design concerns are blade flutter and forced vibration that need to be quantified at the early part of engine tests. This paper details the experimental investigation carried out on a transonic shroudless low aspect ratio fan bladed disk that experienced subsonic/transonic stall flutter and forced vibration excitation. Experiments are performed on a full scale engine using tip timing sensors flush mounted on the fan casing to characterize the vibratory responses during flutter and forced vibration conditions during engine operation. Numerical simulations are performed using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis. Blade natural frequencies and mode shapes are obtained from finite element (FE) modal analysis. The experimental data captured from engine tests are used to validate the predicted results.

The aim of this study is to predict the dynamic behaviour of single lap-jointed cantilevered beams theoretically and to validate the predictions via experimental tests. The ABAQUS finite element analysis (FEA) software was used to predict the natural frequencies, mode shapes and frequency response functions (FRFs) of lap-jointed beams. The LMS (Leuven Measurement System) CADA-X dynamic test software and the LMS-DIFA Scadas II 48 channel data acquisition hardware were used in experimental measurement of the dynamic response of the lap-jointed beams. It is shown that the natural frequencies of the single lap-jointed cantilevered beams from experiment are lower than those predicted using FEA. It is also found that the measued FRFs are close to the predicted FRFs for the first two modes of vibration of the single lap-jointed cantilevered beam. Above the second mode of vibration, there is considerable discrepancy between the measured and predicted FRFs.

Considered here was the effect of multistage coupling on the dynamics of a rotor consisting of eight mistuned bladed discs on a solid shaft. Each bladed disc had a different number of rotor blades. Free vibrations were examined using finite element representations of rotating single blades, bladed discs, and the entire rotor. In this study the global rotating mode shapes of eight flexible mistuned bladed discs on shaft assemblies were calculated, taking into account rotational effects such as centrifugal stiffening. The thus obtained natural frequencies of the blade, shaft, bladed disc and entire shaft with discs were carefully examined to discover resonance conditions and coupling effects. This study found that mistuned systems cause far more intensive multistage coupling than tuned ones. The greater the mistuning, the more intense the multistage coupling.
