A new fixed interface component mode synthesis method using partial interface modes is presented. Partial interface modes are the structure normal modes which result from the static condensation of the structure to the interface between the substructures and which are clamped at a part of this interface. This method is the generalization of the classical component mode synthesis method which keeps all the interface physical displacements in the assembled reduced system and the method using interface modes which eliminates all of them. It allows one to reduce the number of the interface generalized coordinates and at the same time to keep some of the physical displacements at the interface. This latter capability is very useful to build reduced order models in which the presence of physical displacements are essential, for example in order to impose prescribed motions or to take into account local non-linearities. The new method is applied to a bladed disk in both tuned and mistuned cases.

Finite element-based reduced order methods are presented with application to the prediction of rotating mistuned bladed disk forced response. These methods have already been applied to tuned non-rotating models having cyclic symmetry. The aim is to reduce significantly the number of interface co-ordinates, which can be very important in classical component mode synthesis methods. The approach is based on the use of the interface modes which result from a static condensation of the whole structure on the whole interface. A first implementation of this procedure and numerical results are presented.

The study of interactions through direct contact between bladetips and outer casings in modern turbomachines may be very time-consuming when the classical finite element method is used. The construction of reduced-order models using component mode synthesis (CMS) methods generally allows for dramatic increase in computational efficiency and may be used in order to improve the knowledge over these interaction phenomena. Among the available approaches, both a fixed-interface method and a free-interface method are considered here in an original manner to reduce the size of a realistic two-dimensional model. The equations of motion are solved using an explicit time integration scheme with the Lagrange multiplier method where friction is accounted for. This method offers energy momentum conserving which is a critical point to ensure the convergence of the algorithm. Moreover, it is shown that even in a non-linear framework the reduced-order models converge to the finite element solution as the number of modes included in the models increases. Considering the fixed-interface method of Craig-Bampton (CB) and the free-interface method of Craig-Chang-Martinez (CCM), it is shown that a method with fast displacement convergence may be less efficient in terms of motion convergence.

Ignoring the effect of prestress can increase the gap between the actual results and research results, which is not conducive to improve the vibration localization of bladed disk system and the finite element calculation. To improve the vibration localization and computational efficiency, the prestressed component mode synthesis method (PCMSM) was adopted to establish the finite element reduced-order model considering prepress. Since the main calculation precision of the prestressed component mode synthesis method was the mode truncation number, calculation was made to the eigenfrequency of different mode truncations; the contrast and analysis were made to the calculation result of blisk model, minimum mode truncation number under the above calculation precision was obtained, and freedom of the model was greatly reduced. The finite element reduced-order model was collocated to make an analysis of the vibration response characteristics of mistuned bladed disk. From the aforementioned analysis, the maximum amplitude of mistuned bladed disk was not only associated with the mistuning value of blade but also related to the frequency of adjacent blade; on the basis of such a rule, the finite element reduced-order model was adopted to raise an optimization algorithm for the blade vibration reduction and arrangement. Results have revealed that the optimization algorithm has made an adequate consideration of both model precision and calculation speed. The maximum dimensionless amplitude of blade vibration under three mistuning patterns and upon optimization is greatly reduced by 32.8%, 30.1%, and 28%. The localization factor of blade vibration under three mistuning patterns and upon optimization is greatly reduced by 64%, 68.5%, and 57.2%. The optimization algorithm based on the prestressed component mode synthesis method gets the optimization value by not more than 15 iterations. The optimization algorithm has greatly reduced the amplitude of the blade and obviously dampened vibration localization of the bladed disk system.

This paper describes a methodology for developing reduced-order dynamic models of nonlinear structural systems that are composed of an assembly of component structures. The approach is a nonlinear extension of the fixed-interface component mode synthesis technique developed for linear structures by Hurty and modified by Craig and Bampton. Specifically, the case of nonlinear substructures is handled by using fixed-interface nonlinear normal modes. These normal modes are constructed for the various substructures using an invariant manifold approach, and are then coupled through the traditional linear constraint modes (i.e., the static deformation shapes produced by unit interface motions). A simple system is used to demonstrate the proof of concept and show the effectiveness of the proposed procedure. Simulations are performed to show that the reduced-order model obtained from the proposed procedure outperforms the reduced-order model obtained from the classical fixed-interface linear component mode synthesis approach. Moreover, the proposed method is readily applicable to large-scale nonlinear structural systems.

The uncertainty of a system is usually quantified with the use of sampling methods such as Monte-Carlo or Latin hypercube sampling. These sampling methods require many computations of the model and may include re-meshing. The re-solving and re-meshing of the model is a very large computational burden. One way to greatly reduce this computational burden is to use a parameterized reduced order model. This is a model that contains the sensitivities of the desired results with respect to changing parameters such as Young’s modulus. The typical method of computing these sensitivities is the use of finite difference technique that gives an approximation that is subject to truncation error and subtractive cancellation due to the precision of the computer. One way of eliminating this error is to use hyperdual numbers, which are able to generate exact sensitivities that are not subject to the precision of the computer. This paper uses the concept of hyper-dual numbers to parameterize a system that is composed of two substructures in the form of Craig-Bampton substructure representations, and combine them using component mode synthesis. The synthesis transformations using other techniques require the use of a nominal transformation while this approach allows for exact transformations when a perturbation is applied. This paper presents this technique for a planar motion frame and compares the use and accuracy of the approach against the true full system. This work lays the groundwork for performing component mode synthesis using hyper-dual numbers.

Abstract In the present work reduced order models (ROM) that are independent from the full order finite element models (FOM) considering geometrical non linearities are developed and applied to the dynamic study of a fan. The structure is considered to present nonlinear vibrations around the pre-stressed equilibrium induced by rotation enhancing the classical linearised approach. The reduced nonlinear forces are represented by a polynomial expansion obtained by the Stiffness Evaluation Procedure (STEP) and then corrected by means of a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) that filters the full order nonlinear forces (StepC ROM). The Linear Normal Modes (LNM) and Craig-Bampton (C-B) type reduced basis are considered here. The latter are parametrised with respect to the rotating velocity. The periodic solutions obtained with the StepC ROM are in good agreement with the solutions of the FOM and are more accurate than the linearised ROM solutions and the STEP ROM. The proposed StepC ROM provides the best compromise between accuracy and time consumption of the ROM.

Reduced order models have been reported in the literature that can be used to predict the harmonic response of mistuned bladed disks. It has been shown that in many cases they exhibit structural fidelity comparable to a finite element analysis of the full bladed disk system while offering a significant improvement in computational efficiency. In these models the blades and disk are treated as distinct substructures. This paper presents a new, simpler approach for developing reduced order models in which the modes of the mistuned system are represented in terms of a sub-set of nominal system modes. It has the following attributes: the input requirements are relatively easy to generate; it accurately predicts mistuning effects in regions where frequency veering occurs; as the number of degrees of freedom increases it converges to the exact solution; it accurately predicts stresses as well as displacements; and it accurately models the deformation and stresses at the blades’ bases.
