Component-centric reduced order models (ROMs) are introduced here as small-size ROMs providing an accurate prediction of the linear response of part of a structure (the β component) without focusing on the rest of it (the α component). Craig–Bampton (CB) substructuring methods are first considered. In one method, the β component response is modeled with its fixed interface modes while the other adopts singular value eigenvectors of the β component deflections of the linear modes of the entire structure. The deflections in the α component induced by harmonic motions of these β component modes are processed by a proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to model the α component response. A third approach starts from the linear modes of the entire structure which are dominant in the β component response. Then, the contributions of other modes in this part of the structure are approximated in terms of those of the dominant modes with close natural frequencies and similar mode shapes in the β component, i.e., these nondominant modal contributions are “lumped” onto dominant ones. This lumping permits to increase the accuracy in the β component at a fixed number of modes. The three approaches are assessed on a structural finite element model of a nine-bay panel with the modal lumping-based method yielding the most “compact” ROMs. Finally, good robustness of the ROM to changes in the β component properties (e.g., for design optimization) is demonstrated and a similar sensitivity analysis is carried out with respect to the loading under which the ROM is constructed.

The results from a reduced order model based on frequency mistuning are compared with those from recently developed modified modal domain analysis (MMDA). For the academic bladed rotor considered in this paper, the frequency mistuning analysis is unable to capture the effects of geometric mistuning, whereas MMDA provides accurate estimates of natural frequencies, mode shapes, and forced response.

Modified modal domain analysis (MMDA), a reduced order modeling technique, is applied to a geometrically mistuned integrally bladed rotor to obtain its natural frequencies, mode shapes, and forced response. The geometric mistuning of blades is described in terms of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) of the coordinate measurement machine (CMM) data. Results from MMDA are compared to those from the full (360 deg) rotor Ansys model. It is found that the MMDA can accurately predict natural frequencies, mode shapes, and forced response. The effects of the number of POD features and the number of tuned modes used as bases for model reduction are examined. Results from frequency mistuning approaches, fundamental mistuning model (FMM) and subset of nominal modes (SNM), are also generated and compared to those from full (360 deg) rotor Ansys model. It is clearly seen that FMM and SNM are unable to yield accurate results whereas MMDA yields highly accurate results.

Many industrial machines nowadays are sold based on analysis performed on mathematical models of the rotors, bearings, substructures, and other components. The validity of the analysts therefore depends on the accuracy of the models themselves. When the rotor is available, modal testing may be used to validate the model of the rotor by comparing the calculated and measured free-free natural frequencies and mode shapes. This work presents additional tools for the verification of analytical models against experimental data. These tools use models of the rotor constructed from the measured data and the analytical model. A comparison of the first six calculated and measured free-free natural frequencies and mode shapes for a multi-mass flexible rotor is presented. The natural frequencies compare within 1.8%. The calculated and measured mode shapes were used to construct independent reduced order models of the rotor. These models were used to perform forced response and stability analyses. Forced response functions are presented comparing the forced response characteristics obtained from the two models. This provides a comparison between the measured and calculated forced response functions for the same number of modes. For the stability analysis, identical bearing models were added to both reduced order models. The eigenvalues were calculated using both models for a range of bearing stiffness and damping coefficients and were plotted for comparison.

Abstract In the present work reduced order models (ROM) that are independent from the full order finite element models (FOM) considering geometrical non linearities are developed and applied to the dynamic study of a fan. The structure is considered to present nonlinear vibrations around the pre-stressed equilibrium induced by rotation enhancing the classical linearised approach. The reduced nonlinear forces are represented by a polynomial expansion obtained by the Stiffness Evaluation Procedure (STEP) and then corrected by means of a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) that filters the full order nonlinear forces (StepC ROM). The Linear Normal Modes (LNM) and Craig-Bampton (C-B) type reduced basis are considered here. The latter are parametrised with respect to the rotating velocity. The periodic solutions obtained with the StepC ROM are in good agreement with the solutions of the FOM and are more accurate than the linearised ROM solutions and the STEP ROM. The proposed StepC ROM provides the best compromise between accuracy and time consumption of the ROM.

Abstract Dynamic models have proven to be helpful for determining the residual water content in combustible biomass. However, these models often require partial differential equations, which render simulations impracticable when several thousand particles need to be considered, such as in the drying of wood chips. Reduced-order models help to overcome this problem. We compare proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) based to balanced truncation based reduced-order models. Both reduced models are lean enough for an application to systems with many particles, but the model based on balanced truncation shows more accurate results.

Abstract A general finite element model is presented for determining the coupled bending-torsion natural frequencies and mode shapes of geared rotors. Uncoupled bending and torsion frequencies are obtained for examples available in literature and the present program is verified against these. The effect of the gear box is considered to determine the coupled frequencies. Parameters studied include the pressure angle, gear mesh stiffness, and bearing properties. The gear pressure angle is shown to have no effect on the natural frequencies of rotors supported on isotropic bearing supports. Several case studies with bending-torsion coupling are considered and the results obtained are compared with those available in literature. The results of a general rotor system with 8lodes are also presented.

From the perspective of statics, the deformation of welded beam under the action of gravity and cutting force was studied in the paper. During the actual machining process, vibration of welded beam and even the machine can be caused due to the change of cutting condition and interference from the outside. To avoid the natural frequency, and prevent the occurrence of resonance phenomena, welded beam modal was further analyzed; the first six natural frequencies and mode shapes of the beam were achieved. Statics and modal analysis are the basis of lightweight design of the welded beam based on topology optimization. The topology optimization model of maximum stiffness design and eigenvalue problem structural dynamics was established. Finite element model of beam and its components was established in hypermesh, and the optimization objective function, constraint function and boundary conditions were also set. Compared with the structure before optimization, the weight of the beam was reduced 10%, the lightweight design of the welded beam was achieved and the comprehensive performance of the beam was significantly improved.
