An effective method has been developed to calculate the sensitivity of the resonance peak frequency and forced response level to variation of parameters of nonlinear friction contact interfaces and excitation. The method allows determination of the sensitivity characteristics simultaneously with the resonance peak frequency and response level calculated as a function of any parameter of interest and without significant computational expense. Capabilities of the method are demonstrated on examples of analysis of large-scale finite element models of realistic bladed disks with major types of the nonlinear contact interfaces: (i) a blisk with underplatform dampers, (ii) a bladed disk with friction damping at blade fir-tree roots, and (iii) a high-pressure bladed disk with shroud contacts. The numerical investigations show high efficiency of the method proposed.

Abstract One of the major sources of the damping of the forced vibration for bladed disk structures is the micro-slip motion at the contact interfaces of blade-disk joints. In this paper, the modeling strategies of nonlinear contact interactions at blade roots are examined using high-fidelity modelling of bladed disk assemblies and the nonlinear contact interactions at blade-disk contact patches. The analysis is performed in the frequency domain using multiharmonic harmonic balance method and analytically formulated node-to-node contact elements modelling frictional and gap nonlinear interactions. The effect of the number, location and distribution of nonlinear contact elements are analyzed using cyclically symmetric bladed disks. The possibility of using the number of the contact elements noticeably smaller than the total number of nodes in the finite element mesh created at the contact interface for the high-fidelity bladed disk model is demonstrated. The parameters for the modeling of the root damping are analysed for tuned and mistuned bladed disks. The geometric shapes of blade roots and corresponding slots in disks cannot be manufactured perfectly and there is inevitable root joint geometry variability within the manufacturing tolerances. Based on these tolerances, the extreme cases of the geometry variation are defined and the assessment of the possible effects of the root geometry variation on the nonlinear forced response are performed based on a set of these extreme cases.

Abstract A new method has been developed for the analysis of nonlinear forced response of bladed disks mistuned by blade anisotropy scatter and for the forced response sensitivity to blade material anisotropy orientations. The approach allows for the calculation of bladed disks with nonlinear friction contact interfaces using the multi-harmonic balance method. The method uses efficient high-accuracy model reduction method for the minimization of the computational effort while providing required accuracy. The capabilities of the developed methods are validated and demonstrated using a two-blade model. A thorough study of the influence of the material anisotropy mistuning and its sensitivity on the characteristics of the forced response is carried out using finite element modes of anisotropy mistuned realistic bladed disk with nonlinear friction joints of blade roots and shroud contacts. The dependency of the nonlinear forced response on excitation level and contact pressure values has been carried out for anisotropy mistuned bladed disks.

An efficient method for analysis of nonlinear vibrations of mistuned bladed disk assemblies has been developed. This development has facilitated the use of large-scale finite element models for realistic bladed disks, used hitherto in analysis of linear vibration, to be extended for the analysis of nonlinear multiharmonic vibration. The new method is based on a technique for the exact condensation of nonlinear finite element models of mistuned bladed disks. The model condensation allows the size of the nonlinear equations to be reduced to the number of degrees of freedom where nonlinear interaction forces are applied. The analysis of nonlinear forced response for simplified and realistic models of mistuned bladed disks has been performed. For a practical high-pressure bladed turbine disk, several types of nonlinear forced response have been considered, including mistuning by (i) scatter of underplatform dampers, (ii) shroud gap scatter, and (iii) blade frequency scatter in the presence of nonlinear shroud interactions.

Abstract An effective method is developed for the efficient calculation of the transient vibration response for mistuned bladed disks under complex excitation and varying rotation speeds. The method uses the large-scale finite element modelling of the bladed disks allowing the accurate description of the dynamic properties of the mistuned bladed disks. The realistic distributions of the excitation forces are considered, which resulted in the multiharmonic excitation loads. The transient response calculation is based on the analytically derived expressions for the transient forced response and the effective method used for the model reduction. The effects of the varying rotation speed on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the mistuned bladed disk and its effects on the amplitude and the spectral composition of the loading are allowed for. The different functions of the rotation speed variation can be analyzed. Numerical studies of the transient forced response and the amplitude amplification in mistuned bladed disks are performed when the resonance regimes are passed during gas-turbine engine acceleration or deceleration. The effects of different types of excitation force and mistuning on transient amplitude amplification are illustrated by a large number of the computational results and comparative analysis. These results and analysis of transient forced response are shown on an example of a realistic mistuned bladed disk.

An approach is developed to analyze the multiharmonic forced response of large-scale finite element models of bladed disks taking account of the nonlinear forces acting at the contact interfaces of blade roots. Area contact interaction is modeled by area friction contact elements which allow for friction stresses under variable normal load, unilateral contacts, clearances, and interferences. Examples of application of the new approach to the analysis of root damping and forced response levels are given and numerical investigations of effects of contact conditions at root joints and excitation levels are explored for practical bladed disks.

An efficient method is developed to calculate stochastic and uncertainty characteristics of forced response for nonlinear vibrations of bladed disks with friction and gap contact interfaces. Uncertainty ranges, statistical characteristics, and probability density functions for forced response levels are determined directly without any sampling procedure. The method uses approximations of the forced response level based on derived analytically and calculated extremely fast and accurately sensitivity coefficients of forced response with respect to friction contact interface parameters. The method effectiveness allows analysis of strongly nonlinear vibration of bladed disks using realistic large-scale finite element models. The method is implemented in a program code developed at Imperial College and numerical examples of application of the method for stochastic analysis of a realistic blisc with underplatform dampers are provided.

An approach for using the new damper models in the dynamic analysis of large-scale finite element models of bladed disks is proposed and realized. Numerical investigations of bladed disks are performed to demonstrate the capabilities of the new models and an analysis of the influence of the damper parameters on the forced response of bladed disks is made.

An effective method for analysis of periodic forced response of nonlinear cyclically symmetric structures has been developed. The method allows multiharmonic forced response to be calculated for a whole bladed disk using a periodic sector model without any loss of accuracy in calculations and modeling. A rigorous proof of the validity of the reduction of the whole nonlinear structure to a sector is provided. Types of bladed disk forcing for which the method may be applied are formulated. A multiharmonic formulation and a solution technique for equations of motion have been derived for two cases of description for a linear part of the bladed disk model: (i) using sector finite element matrices and (ii) using sector mode shapes and frequencies. Calculations validating the developed method and a numerical investigation of a realistic high-pressure turbine bladed disk with shrouds have demonstrated the high efficiency of the method.
