Blade resonance parameter identification based on tip-timing method without the once-per revolution sensor

TL;DR: In this article, a synchronous resonance vibration measurement method of blade based on tip-timing is presented, which requires no once-per-revolution sensor which makes it more generally applicable in the condition where this sensor is difficult to install, especially for the high-pressure rotors of dual-rotor engines.
