TL;DR: In this article, an improvement of the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation (ANCF) is carried out for modal analysis of rotating plates in order to solve transient dynamics problems and the results obtained from the presented method are validated by comparison with available results from literature and commercial software ANSYS.
Abstract: Dynamics analysis of a rotating plate with a setting angle is presented in this study by using the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation (ANCF). The setting angle has a significant influence on distribution of the centrifugal force so that rotating plates can be twisted. However, the rotation-induced torsion deformation has not been discussed in existing literature and the existing approaches are not always appropriate both in transient and modal analysis for this subject. An improvement of the ANCF which is very suitable to solve transient dynamics problems is carried out for modal analysis of rotating plates in this paper. The results obtained from the presented method are validated by comparison with available results from literature and commercial software ANSYS which exhibits a good agreement. The results in different cases indicate that the torsion deformations of rotating plates not only exist in the transient dynamics but also affect significantly the modal characteristics. Incidentally, the effect of setting angle on torsion deformation, frequencies and mode shapes is discussed by parametric analysis .

TL;DR: In this paper, the super-harmonic resonances combined with 2:1 internal resonance of a rotating blade subjected to strong gas pressure were investigated, and the steady-state response of the rotating blade was calculated via the method of multiple scales.
Abstract: The present work investigates the super-harmonic resonances combined with 2:1 internal resonance of a rotating blade subjected to strong gas pressure. The dynamic model includes the effect of the initial curved axis of the blade induced by the thermal gradient. The dimensionless gas excitation amplitude is assumed to be the same magnitude of the dimensionless vibration displacement. The vibration of the blade in the plane of rotation and the plane perpendicular to it are described by a set of coupled ordinary differential equations with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. The steady-state response of the rotating blade is calculated via the method of multiple scales. The stabilities of the steady-state responses are determined via Lyapunov theory. Parametric studies are performed to clarify the influences of system parameters on dynamic response and unstable regions. The various typical phenomena including jump, hysteresis and saturation are observed in the dynamic model. The stable and unstable regions of the solution are analyzed in the plane of external detuning parameter and excitation amplitude. The evaluation of the blade dynamic response is revealed in the unstable region. The theoretical results obtained via the method of multiple scales coincide with the numerical solutions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider bending waves, which are a special combination of compressional and shear waves, and for some special cases (quasi-) longitudinal waves and torsional waves also have to be considered.
Abstract: Although sound waves in structures cannot be heard directly, and only be felt at low frequencies, they play an important role in noise control, because many sound signals are generated or transmitted in structures before they are radiated into the surrounding medium. In several respects sound waves in structures and sound waves in gases or liquids are similar, there are, however, also fundamental differences, which are due to the fact that solids have a certain shear stiffness, wheras gases or liquids show practically none. As a consequence acoustic energy can be transported not only by the normal compressional waves but also by shear waves and many combinations of compressional (sometimes loosely called longitudinal) and shear waves . For noise control purposes bending waves (which are a special combination of compressional and shear waves) are of primary importance; for some special cases (quasi-) longitudinal waves and torsional waves also have to be considered.

Abstract: A software suite consisting of 17 MATLAB functions for solving differential equations by the spectral collocation (i.e., pseudospectral) method is presented. It includes functions for computing derivatives of arbitrary order corresponding to Chebyshev, Hermite, Laguerre, Fourier, and sinc interpolants. Auxiliary functions are included for incorporating boundary conditions, performing interpolation using barycentric formulas, and computing roots of orthogonal polynomials. It is demonstrated how to use the package for solving eigenvalue, boundary value, and initial value problems arising in the fields of special functions, quantum mechanics, nonlinear waves, and hydrodynamic stability.

TL;DR: In this article, the differential equations of motion for the lateral and torsional deformations of twisted rotating beams are developed for application to helicopter rotor and propeller blades, and the generality is such that previous theories involving various simplifications are contained as subcases to the theory presented in this paper.
Abstract: The differential equations of motion for the lateral and torsional deformations of twisted rotating beams are developed for application to helicopter rotor and propeller blades. No assumption is made regarding the coincidence of the neutral, elastic, and mass axes, and the generality is such that previous theories involving various simplifications are contained as subcases to the theory presented in this paper. Special attention is given the terms which are not included in previous theories. These terms are largely coupling-type terms associated with the centrifugal forces. Methods of solution of the equations of motion are indicated by selected examples.
