Experimental and numerical investigation of friction element dissipative effects in blade shrouding

TL;DR: In this paper, a friction element placed in the shroud between the blade heads is used as a source of passive damping in various mechanical systems, and the effect of friction is studied for the case of harmonic excitation by suitable frequency and subsequent free vibration attenuation.

Application of the Reissner method to derive the coupled bending-torsion equations of dynamic motion of rotating pretwisted cantilever blading with allowance for shear deflection, rotary inertia, warping and thermal effects

TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic Reissner functional in conjunction with variational calculus has been employed to derive the equations of motion of pretwisted cantilever blades of asymmetric aerofoil cross section, with the blade assumed to be mounted on a rotating disc at a stagger angle.

A Navier Stokes Analysis of Airfoils in Oscillating Transonic Cascades for the Prediction of Aerodynamic Damping

TL;DR: In this article, an unsteady, compressible, two-dimensional, thin shear layer Navier-Stokes solver is modified to predict the motion-dependent flow around oscillating airfoils in a cascade.
