The equations of motions consist of the coupling of bending and torsion of a blade as well as a van der Pol oscillation which represents the time-varying of the fluid. The 1:1 internal resonance of the system is analyzed with the multiple scale method, and the modulation equations are derived. The two-parameter bifurcation diagrams are computed. The effects of the system parameters, including the detuning parameter and the reduced frequency, on responses of the struc- ture and fluid are investigated. Bifurcation curves are computed and the stability is determined by examining the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix. The results indicate that rich dynamic phenomena of the steady-state solutions including the sad- dle-node and Hopf bifurcations can occur under certain parameter conditions. The parameter region where the unstable solu- tions occur should be avoided to keep the safe operation of the blades. The analytical solutions are verified by the direct nu- merical simulations.展开更多

The classic von Karman plate theory and the first-order shear deformation theory are applied to derive the energy equations of the rotating TBC blade, in which the geometric shapes, the work ambient temperature, and the TBC material properties are considered. The Chebyshev-Ritz method is used to obtain the nature frequency of the rotating TBC blade. For static frequency and modal analysis, the finite-element method(FEM)is also applied to compare and validate the results from the Chebyshev-Ritz method. A good agreement is found among these kinds of methods. For dynamic frequency, the results are analyzed in detail concerning the influence of system parameters such as the thickness of the TBC layer, the working temperature, and the pre-twisted and pre-set angle. Finally, the Campbell diagram is demonstrated to analyze the resonance property of the cantilever sandwich TBC blade model.展开更多
