In the field of turbomachinery, great efforts are made to enhance computational tools to obtain reliable predictions of the vibrational behavior of friction-damped bladed disks. As a trade-off between computational burden and level of simplification, numerous methods were developed to reduce the nonlinear systems dimension. Using component mode synthesis methods (CMS), one is capable to describe the systems motion by interface and modal coordinates. Subsequently or alternatively, the dynamic compliance matrix can be evaluated efficiently by means of modal superposition to avoid the inversion of the dynamic stiffness matrix. Only the equations corresponding to the degrees-of-freedom (DOF) subject to localized nonlinear contact forces need to be solved simultaneously, whereas the solution of the linear DOF is obtained by exploiting the algebraic character of the set of equations. In this paper, an approach is presented to account for rotational speed-dependent stiffness in the subset of nonlinear DOF without the need to re-evaluate the associated eigenvalue problem (EVP) when rotational speed is changed. This is done by means of a Taylor series expansion of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors used for the modal superposition to reconstruct the dynamic compliance matrix. In the context of forced response predictions of friction-damped blisks, the expansion is performed up to different order for a simplified blisk model with nonlinear contact interfaces. The results are compared to the solution obtained by direct evaluation of the EVP at selected rotational speeds and the solution when dynamic compliance matrix is built up by direct inversion of the dynamic stiffness matrix. Finally, the proposed methods computational performance is analyzed.

A package solution is presented for the full-scale bounds estimation of temperature in the nonlinear transient heat transfer problems with small or large uncertainties. When the interval scale is relatively small, an efficient Taylor series expansion-based bounds estimation of temperature is stressed on the acquirement of first and second-order derivatives of temperature with high fidelity. When the interval scale is relatively large, an optimization-based approach in conjunction with a dimension-adaptive sparse grid (DSG) surrogate is developed for the bounds estimation of temperature, and the heavy computational burden of repeated deterministic solutions of nonlinear transient heat transfer problems can be efficiently alleviated by the DSG surrogate. A temporally piecewise adaptive algorithm with high fidelity is employed to gain the deterministic solution of temperature, and is further developed for recursive adaptive computing of the first and second-order derivatives of temperature. Therefore, the implementation of Taylor series expansion and the construction of DSG surrogate are underpinned by a reliable numerical platform. The parallelization is utilized for the construction of DSG surrogate for further acceleration. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approaches are demonstrated by two numerical examples.

The multi-sensor information fusion particle filter (PF) has been put forward for nonlinear systems with correlated noises. The proposed algorithm uses the Taylor series expansion method, which makes the nonlinear measurement functions have a linear relationship by the intermediary function. A weighted measurement fusion PF (WMF-PF) was put forward for systems with correlated noises by applying the full rank decomposition and the weighted least square theory. Compared with the augmented optimal centralized fusion particle filter (CF-PF), it could greatly reduce the amount of calculation. Moreover, it showed asymptotic optimality as the Taylor series expansion increased. The simulation examples illustrate the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract Let A be the class of analytic functions f(z) in the unit disc ∆ = {z ∈ C : |z| < 1g with the Taylor series expansion about the origin given by f(z) = z+ ∑n=2∞ anzn, z ∈∆ : The focus of this paper is on deriving upper bounds for the third order Hankel determinant H3(1) for two new subclasses of A.
