It is well-known that flutter vibrations of bladed disks can be saturated by dry friction. Previous theoretical investigations indicated that the steady-state, friction-damped flutter vibrations of tuned bladed disks are always dominated by a single traveling wave component, even if multiple traveling wave forms are unstable. This contrasts recent experimental investigations where multiple traveling wave forms were found to participate at steady state. In this paper, we demonstrate that this phenomenon can be explained by nonlinear frictional interblade coupling. To this end, we consider a simple phenomenological model of a bladed disk with frictional intersector coupling and two unstable traveling waves forms. Vibrations occur not only in the form of limit cycle oscillations (periodic) but also in the form of limit torus oscillations (quasi-periodic). It is shown how the limit state depends on the initial conditions, and that the occurrence of multiwave flutter depends on the proximity of the complex eigenvalues of the associated unstable waves. Finally, by computing the limit torus oscillation with a frequency-domain method, we lay the cornerstone for the systematic prediction of friction-saturated flutter vibrations of state-of-the-art bladed disk models.

The aerodynamic interference between the blades of a bladed disk can lead to self-excited vibrations known as flutter. Flutter vibrations can reach considerable levels and are thus of special concern in the design of turbomachines. The vibrations can be saturated in so-called limit cycles by the nonlinear dissipative effects related to dry friction in mechanical joints. For a given mode family of a tuned bladed disk, the flutter stability depends on the interblade phase angle, and often multiple traveling wave forms are unstable. In spite of this, previous investigations indicated that in the steady state, friction-damped flutter vibrations of tuned bladed disks are dominated by a single traveling wave component. In contrast, we demonstrate that, in fact, multiple traveling wave components may interact in the steady state. To this end, a phenomenological model is studied, which possesses one lumped mass per sector, elastic Coulomb friction inter-sector coupling, and two unstable traveling waves forms. Depending on the location of the complex eigenvalues of the linearized system, the steady-state vibrations are shown to be dominated by either of the two unstable wave forms or exhibit considerable contributions of both. Both periodic and quasi-periodic attractor forms are computed using Fourier methods and validated with direct time integration. Moreover, the basins of attraction of the different stable limit states are analyzed in detail. Remarkably, even if a stable, periodic vibration in a certain traveling wave is attained, a sufficiently strong instantaneous perturbation of the same form can give rise to a transient ending in a limit cycle with a different traveling wave character.

The results of an experimental investigation on the effects of random blade mistuning on the forced dynamic response of bladed disks are reported. The primary aim of the experiment is to gain understanding of the phenomena of mode localization and forced response blade amplitude magnification in bladed disks. A stationary, nominally periodic, twelve-bladed disk with simple geometry is subjected to a traveling-wave, out-of-plane, “engine order” excitation delivered via phase-shifted control signals sent to piezo-electric actuators mounted on the blades. The bladed disk is then mistuned by the addition of small, unequal weights to the blade tips, and it is again subjected to a traveling wave excitation. The experimental data is used to verify analytical predictions about the occurrence of localized mode shapes, increases in forced response amplitude, and changes in resonant frequency due to the presence of mistuning. Very good agreement between experimental measurements and finite element analysis is obtained. The out-of-plane response is compared and contrasted with the previously reported in-plane mode localization behavior of the same test specimen. This work also represents an important extension of previous experimental study by investigating a frequency regime in which modal density is lower but disk-blade interaction is significantly greater.

The results of an experimental investigations on the natural characteristics of tuned bladed disk and forced dynamic responses of mistuned bladed disks are reported. Three experimental bladed disks are discussed: a tuned specimen of periodic symmetry with 12-blades which are nominally identical, and two mistuned specimens, which feature small blade-to-blade variations by adding slight blocks to blade tips. All the specimens are subject to travelling wave excitation produced by piezo-electric actuators sticking on the root of blades. The primary objective of this experiment is to observe the natural characteristics of tuned bladed disk, and to research the impact of mistuning on the forced response blade amplitude magnification. Analytical predictions about the blade amplitude magnification factor are verified by the experimental results.

State Responses

An efficient methodology to predict the nonlinear response of bladed disks with a dry friction ring damper is proposed. Designing frictional interfaces for bladed-disk systems is an important approach to dissipate vibration energy. One emerging technology uses ring dampers, which are ringlike substructures constrained to move inside a groove at the root of the blades. Such rings are in contact with the bladed disk due to centrifugal forces, and they create nonlinear dissipation by relative motion between the ring and the disk. The analysis of the dynamic response of nonlinear structures is commonly done by numerical integration of the equations of motion, which is computationally inefficient, especially for steady-state responses. To address this issue, reduced-order models (ROMs) are developed to capture the nonlinear behavior due to contact friction. The approach is based on expressing the nonlinear forces as equivalent nonlinear damping and stiffness parameters. The method requires only sector-level calculations and allows precalculation of the response-dependent equivalent terms. These factors contribute to the increase of the computational speed of the iterative solution methods. A model of a bladed disk and damper is used to demonstrate the method. Macro- and micro-slip are used in the friction model to account for realistic behavior of dry friction damping. For validation, responses due to steady-state traveling wave excitations are examined. Results computed by ROMs are compared with results from transient dynamic analysis (TDA) in ansys with the full-order model. It is found that the steady-state responses predicted from the ROMs and the results from ansys are in good agreement, and that the ROMs reduce computation time significantly.

AbstractPredicting the onset, style and duration of explosive volcanic eruptions remains a great challenge. While the fundamental underlying processes are thought to be known, a clear correlation between eruptive features observable above Earth’s surface and conditions and properties in the immediate subsurface is far from complete. Furthermore, the highly dynamic nature and inaccessibility of explosive events means that progress in the field investigation of such events remains slow. Scaled experimental investigations represent an opportunity to study individual volcanic processes separately and, despite their highly dynamic nature, to quantify them systematically. Here, impulsively generated vertical gas-particle jets were generated using rapid decompression shock-tube experiments. The angular deviation from the vertical, defined as the “spreading angle”, has been quantified for gas and particles on both sides of the jets at different time steps using high-speed video analysis. The experimental variables investigated are 1) vent geometry, 2) tube length, 3) particle load, 4) particle size, and 5) temperature. Immediately prior to the first above-vent observations, gas expansion accommodates the initial gas overpressure. All experimental jets inevitably start with a particle-free gas phase (gas-only), which is typically clearly visible due to expansion-induced cooling and condensation. We record that the gas spreading angle is directly influenced by 1) vent geometry and 2) the duration of the initial gas-only phase. After some delay, whose length depends on the experimental conditions, the jet incorporates particles becoming a gas-particle jet. Below we quantify how our experimental conditions affect the temporal evolution of these two phases (gas-only and gas-particle) of each jet. As expected, the gas spreading angle is always at least as large as the particle spreading angle. The latter is positively correlated with particle load and negatively correlated with particle size. Such empirical experimentally derived relationships between the observable features of the gas-particle jets and known initial conditions can serve as input for the parameterisation of equivalent observations at active volcanoes, alleviating the circumstances where an a priori knowledge of magma textures and ascent rate, temperature and gas overpressure and/or the geometry of the shallow plumbing system is typically chronically lacking. The generation of experimental parameterisations raises the possibility that detailed field investigations on gas-particle jets at frequently erupting volcanoes might be used for elucidating subsurface parameters and their temporal variability, with all the implications that may have for better defining hazard assessment.

The steady-state response of a system constrained by a limited slip joint and excited by a trigonometrically varying external load is discussed. It is shown that the system may possess such features as disconnected response curves and jumps in response depending on the strength of the system nonlinearity, the level of excitation, the amount of viscous damping, and the initial conditions of the system.
