Abstract The effect of operating point on the aerodynamic excitation that causes forced response vibrations in turbomachinery blading is studied numerically. For this purpose, a novel method for rapid assessment of large operating point variations on the mode excitability is introduced. This method includes a surrogate modeling approach based on Kriging interpolation in combination with an adaptive sampling technique. The data for the model is predicted by means of unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations with the Nonlinear Harmonic (NLH) method in the frequency domain. The concept of an excitation map describing the excitation as a function of rotational speed and expansion ratio is introduced. Excitation maps for the blade passing frequency are obtained for ten mode shapes and two total inlet temperatures in a radial turbine stage. The analysis of the excitation maps has shown that the aerodynamic excitation can be reduced similarly to a performance map and used for different inlet conditions. The effect of the rotational speed appears largely mode dependent and without a clear trend. On the other hand, an increase of the expansion ratio leads to higher excitation for all mode shapes. A study of the harmonic pressure field causing the aerodynamic excitation showed that these dependencies are driven by changes in the velocity triangle and pressure at the rotor inlet. Considering the relatively short computational time to obtain multiple excitation maps, the presented approach is considered suitable to be used for optimizing turbine designs with respect to minimizing the aerodynamic excitation.

Abstract Natural frequencies and vibrating motions are determined in terms of the material and geometric properties of a radial tire modeled as a thin ring on an elastic foundation. Experimental checks of resonant frequencies show good agreement. Forced vibration solutions obtained are shown to consist of a superposition of resonant vibrations, each rotating around the tire at a rate depending on the mode number and the tire rotational speed. Theoretical rolling speeds that are upper bounds at which standing waves occur are determined and checked experimentally. Digital Fourier transform, transfer function, and modal analysis techniques used to determine the resonant mode shapes of a radial tire reveal that antiresonances are the primary transmitters of vibration to the tire axle.

Abstract Experimental modal analysis of a violin with three different tensions of a bass bar has been performed. The bass bar tension is the only intentionally introduced modification of the instrument. The aim of the study was to find differences and similarities between top plate modal parameters determined by a bass bar perfectly fitting the shape of the top plate, the bass bar with a tension usually applied by luthiers (normal), and the tension higher than the normal value. In the modal analysis four signature modes are taken into account. Bass bar tension does not change the sequence of mode shapes. Changes in modal damping are insignificant. An increase in bass bar tension causes an increase in modal frequencies A0 and B(1+) and does not change the frequencies of modes CBR and B(1-).
