Component mode synthesis (CMS) techniques are widely used for dynamic analyses of complex structures. Significant computational savings can be achieved by using CMS, since a modal analysis is performed on each component structure (substructure). Mistuned bladed disks are a class of structures for which CMS is well suited. In the context of blade mistuning, it is convenient to view the blades as individual components, while the entire disk may be treated as a single component. Individual blade mistuning may then be incorporated into the CMS model in a straightforward manner. In this paper, the Craig–Bampton (CB) method of CMS is formulated specifically for mistuned bladed disks, using a cyclic disk description. Then a novel secondary modal analysis reduction technique (SMART) is presented: a secondary modal analysis is performed on a CB model, yielding significant further reduction in model size. In addition, a straightforward non-CMS method is developed in which the blade mistuning is projected onto the tuned system modes. Though similar approaches have been reported previously, here it is generalized to a form that is more useful in practical applications. The theoretical models are discussed and compared from both computational and practical perspectives. It is concluded that using SMART, based on a CB model, has tremendous potential for highly efficient, accurate modeling of the vibration of mistuned bladed disks.

In this paper, the component-mode-based methods formulated in the companion paper (Part I: Theoretical Models) are applied to the dynamic analysis of two example finite element models of bladed disks. Free and forced responses for both tuned and mistuned rotors are considered. Comprehensive comparisons are made among the techniques using full system finite element solutions as a benchmark. The accurate capture of eigenfrequency veering regions is of critical importance for obtaining high-fidelity predictions of the rotor’s sensitivity to mistuning. Therefore, particular attention is devoted to this subject. It is shown that the Craig–Bampton component mode synthesis (CMS) technique is robust and yields highly reliable results. However, this is achieved at considerable computational cost due to the retained component interface degrees of freedom. It is demonstrated that this problem is alleviated by a secondary modal analysis reduction technique (SMART). In addition, a non-CMS mistuning projection method is considered. Although this method is elegant and accurate, it is seen that it lacks the versatility and efficiency of the CMS-based SMART. Overall, this work shows that significant improvements on the accuracy and efficiency of current reduced order modeling methods are possible.

Recent findings indicate that structural interstage (stage-to-stage) coupling in multi-stage rotors can have a critical impact on bladed disk dynamics by altering significantly the flexibility of the disk. This affects local eigenfrequency veering characteristics, and thus a design’s sensitivity to mistuning. In response to these findings, two reduced order modeling techniques are presented that accurately capture structural interstage coupling effects, while keeping model sizes at practical levels. Both free and forced responses of an example two-stage rotor are examined using novel component-mode-based reduced order modeling techniques for mistuned multi-stage assemblies. Both techniques employ an intermediate multi-stage model constructed by component mode synthesis (CMS), which is further reduced by either: (a) partial secondary modal analyses on constraint-mode partitions; or (b) a full-scale secondary modal analysis on the entire multi-stage CMS model. The introduced techniques are evaluated using finite element results as a benchmark. The proposed reduced order modeling techniques are shown to facilitate accurate multi-stage modeling and analyses with or without blade mistuning, using only computationally inexpensive modal data from a cyclic disk sector and a single blade per stage. It is concluded that the most promising and practically feasible approach may be a combination of approaches (a) and (b), in which secondary modal analyses and truncations are first carried out on disk-blade constraint-mode partitions, followed by a tertiary modal analysis on the resulting multi-stage model. In conclusion, by alleviating the restriction to single-stage analyses, the presented multi-stage modeling techniques will enable engineers to analyze the dynamics of mistuned turbomachinery rotor assemblies with greater confidence.

The forced vibration response of bladed disks can increase dramatically due to blade mistuning, which can cause major durability and reliability problems in turbine engines. To predict the mistuned forced response efficiently, several reduced-order modeling techniques have been developed. However, for mistuned bladed disks, increases in blade amplitude levels do not always correlate well with increases in blade stress levels. The stress levels may be computed by postprocessing the reduced-order model results with finite element analysis, but this is cumbersome and expensive. In this work, three indicators that can be calculated directly from reduced-order models are proposed as a way to estimate blade stress levels in a straightforward, systematic, and inexpensive manner. It is shown that these indicators can be used to predict stress values with good accuracy relative to finite element results, even for a case in which the displacement and stress levels show different frequency response trends.

Rotation-Invariant Face Detection (RIPD) has been widely used in practical applications; however, the problem of the adjusting of the rotation-in-plane (RIP) angle of the human face still remains. Recently, several methods based on neural networks have been proposed to solve the RIP angle problem. However, these methods have various limitations, including low detecting speed, model size, and detecting accuracy. To solve the aforementioned problems, we propose a new network, called the Searching Architecture Calibration Network (SACN), which utilizes architecture search, fully convolutional network (FCN) and bounding box center cluster (CC). SACN was tested on the challenging Multi-Oriented Face Detection Data Set and Benchmark (MOFDDB) and achieved a higher detecting accuracy and almost the same speed as existing detectors. Moreover, the average angle error is optimized from the current 12.6° to 10.5°.

The present work contains light curve, spectroscopic, and asteroseismic analyses for KIC 04851217 and KIC 10686876. These systems are detached eclipsing binaries hosting a pulsating component of δ Scuti type and have been observed with the unprecedented accuracy of the Kepler space telescope. Using ground-based spectroscopic observations, the spectral types of the primary components of the systems were estimated as A6V and A5V for KIC 04851217 and KIC 10686876, respectively, with an uncertainty of one subclass. The present spectral classification, together with literature radial velocity curves, were used to model the light curves of the systems and, therefore, to calculate the absolute parameters of their components with a higher degree of certainty. The photometric data were analysed using standard eclipsing binary modeling techniques, while their residuals were further analysed using Fourier transformation techniques to extract the pulsation frequencies of their host δ Scuti stars. The oscillation modes of the independent frequencies were identified using theoretical models of δ Scuti stars. The distances of the systems were calculated using the relation between the luminosity and the pulsation period for δ Scuti stars. Here, the physical and the oscillation properties of the pulsating components of these systems are discussed and compared with others of the same type. Moreover, using all the currently known cases of δ Scuti stars in detached binaries, updated correlations between orbital and dominant pulsation periods and between log g and pulsation periods are derived. It can concluded that the proximity of the companion plays significant role in the evolution of the pulsational frequencies.

Although previous designs of nonlinear optical (NLO) nanostructures have focused on photonic crystals and metal plasmonic nanostructures, complex structures, large ohmic loss, and Joule heating greatly hinder their practical applications.
