The three-dimensional (3D) free vibration of twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section or a radial crack through the height of the cylinder is studied by means of the Chebyshev–Ritz method. The analysis is based on the three-dimensional small strain linear elasticity theory. A simple coordinate transformation is applied to map the twisted cylindrical domain into a normal cylindrical domain. The product of a triplicate Chebyshev polynomial series along with properly defined boundary functions is selected as the admissible functions. An eigenvalue matrix equation can be conveniently derived through a minimization process by the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The boundary functions are devised in such a way that the geometric boundary conditions of the cylinder are automatically satisfied. The excellent property of Chebyshev polynomial series ensures robustness and rapid convergence of the numerical computations. The present study provides a full vibration spectrum for thick twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section, which could not be determined by 1D or 2D models. Highly accurate results presented for the first time are systematically produced, which can serve as a benchmark to calibrate other numerical solutions for twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section. The effects of height-to-radius ratio and twist angle on frequency parameters of cylinders with different subtended angles in the sectorial cross section are discussed in detail.

A large number of references dealing with the vibrations of twisted, cantilevered beams and plates exist in the literature. These works show considerable disagreement concerning the effect of twist angle upon frequencies. The present work is the first three-dimensional study of the problem. Displacement components are assumed in the form of algebraic polynomials which satisfy the fixed face conditions exactly, and which are mathematically complete. The Ritz method is then applied. Accurate frequencies are calculated for twisted thick plates and are compared with ones obtained recently by others using beam, shell, and finite element theory.

This paper offers three-dimensional (3-D) vibration frequency solutions for low aspect ratio compressor blades. The Ritz method is used to minimize the 3-D elasticity-based dynamical energies with displacements approximated by mathematically complete polynomials satisfying the clamped boundary conditions exactly. The accuracy of the method is established by a convergence study explicitly showing the influence of solution determinant size. Several tables are presented which show the variation of natural frequencies with twist angle in the presence of skewness of low aspect ratio compressor blades. Results obtained using the present Ritz method are used to elucidate those frequency solutions which are inaccessible using beam, plate and shell theories, since kinematic constraints associated with these theories are eliminated in the present 3-D approach.

An important aspect of the theoretical study of the vibrational characteristics of turbine and compressor blading is the prediction of the modal curves from which the stresses along the length of the blading can be determined. The accurate prediction of the modal curves allowing for such factors as pre-twist, camber, size of cross-section, centrifugal tensile effects, aerodynamic effects, etc., is still not possible. However, a better understanding of the effects of some of these parameters can be obtained by a study of the modal curves of relatively simple idealized models. In this work the theoretical mode shapes of vibration of pre-twisted rectangular cross-section beams for various width to depth ratios and pre-twist angle in the range 0-90° are examined. The theoretical results are obtained by the transformation method given by Carnegie, Dawson and Thomas (1)† and the accuracy of these results is verified by comparison with results obtained by Dawson (2) using the Ritz method. The theoretical results are compared to modal curves determined experimentally and good agreement is shown between them. A physical explanation of the effects of the pre-twist angle upon the modal curves is given for the first three modes of vibration.

This paper presents the results of a study of the vibration characteristics of low aspect ratio compressor blades. The treatment is based on thin shell theory and the Rayleigh-Ritz method is used to obtain the eigenvectors and eigenvalues. The object is to elucidate those characteristics which are inaccessible using beam theory. Results are presented which show the variation of the natural frequencies and mode shapes with angle of twist, aspect ratio, and angle of inclination of the base of the blade. A three-dimensional plot of the bending mode frequencies versus aspect ratio and twist angle is presented. Although the surfaces describing the variation of frequencies for specific modes do not intersect, there is a point of contact. This contact point is significant in the transition of mode shapes along the frequency surfaces. It is demonstrated that the “stiff-direction” or “in-plane” vibration of the untwisted plate evolves into coupled bending modes as the twist angle increases from zero and that the character of these modes changes in the vicinity of the contact point.

This paper presents a three-dimensional (3D) moving least-square Ritz (MLS-Ritz) formulation for the free vibration analysis of homogeneous elastic thick plates with mixed boundary constraints. The analysis is based on the linear elasticity theory. The Ritz trial functions are established through the moving least-square technique for the displacement fields of the plates. Vibration frequencies for thick square plates and right-angled isosceles triangular plates are obtained by the MLS-Ritz method. The reliability and accuracy of the presented method are examined by extensive convergence and comparison studies and it is established herein that the MLS-Ritz method is a powerful and effective numerical method for the 3D analysis of thick plates.

The biological objectives of root canal treatment have not changed over the recentdecades, but the methods to attain these goals have been greatly modified. Theintroduction of NiTi rotary files represents a major leap in the development ofendodontic instruments, with a wide variety of sophisticated instruments presentlyavailable (1, 2).Whatever their modification or improvement, all of these instruments have onething in common: they consist of a metal core with some type of rotating blade thatmachines the canal with a circular motion using flutes to carry the dentin chips anddebris coronally. Consequently, all rotary NiTi files will machine the root canal to acylindrical bore with a circular cross-section if the clinician applies them in a strictboring manner

This article discusses the analysis of the general equations of the transverse vibration of a piecewise homogeneous viscoelastic plate obtained in the “Oscillation of inlayer plates of constant thickness” [1]. In the present work on the basis of a mathematical method, the approached theory of fluctuation of the two-layer plates, based on plate consideration as three dimensional body, on exact statement of a three dimensional mathematical regional problem of fluctuation is stood at the external efforts causing cross-section fluctuations. The general equations of fluctuations of piecewise homogeneous viscoelastic plates of the constant thickness, described in work [1], are difficult on structure and contain derivatives of any order on coordinates x, y and time t and consequently are not suitable for the decision of applied problems and carrying out of engineering calculations. For the decision of applied problems instead of the general equations it is expedient to use confidants who include this or that final order on derivatives. The classical equations of cross-section fluctuation of a plate contain derivatives not above 4th order, and for piecewise homogeneous or two-layer plates the elementary approached equation of fluctuation is the equation of the sixth order. On the basis of the analytical decision of a problem the general and approached decisions of a problem are under construction, are deduced the equation of fluctuation of piecewise homogeneous two-layer plates taking into account rigid contact on border between layers, and also taking into account mechanical and rheological properties of a material of a plate. The received theoretical results for the decision of dynamic problems of cross-section fluctuation of piecewise homogeneous two-layer plates of a constant thickness taking into account viscous properties of their material allow to count more precisely the is intense-deformed status of plates at non-stationary external loadings.
