The analysis of the response statistics of mistuned turbomachinery rotors requires an expensive Monte Carlo simulation approach. Simple lumped parameter models capture basic localization effects but do not represent well actual engineering structures without a difficult parameter identification. Current component mode analysis techniques generally require a minimum number of degrees of freedom which is too large for running Monte Carlo simulations at a reasonable cost. In the present work, an order reduction method is introduced which is capable of generating reasonably accurate, very low order models of tuned or mistuned bladed disks. This technique is based on component modes of vibration found from a finite element analysis of a single disk-blade sector. It is shown that the phenomenon of mode localization is well captured by the reduced order modeling technique.

This paper presents a reduced-order modeling technique, based on a component mode synthesis method specifically tailored for bladed disks, that allows the resulting low-order model to be attached to a shaft. Mistuning is included in the bladed disk model and the shaft is modeled using uniaxial finite elements according to the rotordynamic approach. The proposed formulation is applied to an example finite element model of a bladed disk, for both tuned and mistuned blades. Comparisons are made between the reduced model and the full finite element solution for free and forced responses in order to assess the methodology. The forced response amplitudes of the blades are found to vary significantly with the inclusion of a flexible shaft. This work suggest that stage independent analyses might not be adequate for predicting the global dynamic response of rotating assemblies of turbomachines.

This paper presents important improvements and extensions to a computationally efficient reduced order modeling technique for the vibration analysis of mistuned bladed disks. In particular, this work shows how the existing modeling technique is readily extended to turbomachinery rotors with shrouded blades. The modeling technique employs a component mode synthesis approach to systematically generate a reduced order model (ROM) using component modes calculated from a finite element model (FEM) of the rotor. Based on the total number of degrees of freedom, the ROM is typically two or three orders of magnitude smaller than the FEM. This makes it feasible to predict the forced response statistics of mistuned bladed disks using Monte Carlo simulations. In this work, particular attention is devoted to the introduction of mistuning into the ROM of a shrouded assembly. Mistuning is modeled by projecting the mistuned natural frequencies of a single, cantilever blade with free shrouds onto the harmonic modes of the shrouded blade assembly. Thus, the necessary mistuning information may be measured by testing individual blades.
