Advanced structural dynamic models for both wedge and split underplatform dampers have been developed. The new damper models take into account inertia forces and the effects of normal load variation on stick-slip transitions at the contact interfaces. The damper models are formulated for the general case of multiharmonic forced response analysis. An approach for using the new damper models in the dynamic analysis of large-scale finite element models of bladed discs is proposed and realised. Numerical investigations of bladed discs 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 discs is made.

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.

A generic method for analysis of nonlinear forced response for bladed discs with friction dampers of different design has been developed. The method uses explicit finite element modelling of dampers, which allows accurate description of flexibility and, for the first time, dynamic properties of dampers of different design in multiharmonic analysis of bladed discs. Large-scale finite element damper and bladed disc models containing 104–106 DOFs can be used. These models, together with detailed description of contact interactions over contact interface areas, allow for any level of refinement required for modelling of elastic damper bodies and for modelling of friction contact interactions. Numerical studies of realistic bladed discs have been performed with three different types of underplatform dampers: (i) a ‘cottage-roof’ (called also ‘wedge’) damper; (ii) seal wire damper; and (iii) a strip damper. Effects of contact interface parameters and excitation levels on damping properties of the dampers and forced response are extensively explored.

An effective method for direct parametric analysis of periodic nonlinear forced response of bladed discs with friction contact interfaces has been developed. The method allows, for the first time, forced response levels to be calculated directly as a function of contact interface parameters such as the friction coefficient, contact surface stiffness (normal and tangential coefficients), clearances, interferences, and the normal stresses at the contact interfaces. The method is based on exact expressions for sensitivities of the multiharmonic interaction forces with respect to variation of all parameters of the friction contact interfaces. These novel expressions are derived in the paper for a friction contact model, accounting for the normal load variation and the possibility of separation-contact transitions. Numerical analysis of effects of the contact parameters on forced response levels has been performed using large-scale finite element models of a practical bladed turbine disc with underplatform dampers and with shroud contacts.

The regeneration of highly loaded turbine blades causes small variations of their geometrical parameters. To determine the influence of such regeneration-induced variances of turbine blades on the nozzle excitation, an existing air turbine is extended by a newly designed stage. The aerodynamic and the structural dynamic behavior of the new turbine stage are analyzed. The calculated eigenfrequencies are verified by an experimental modal analysis and are found to be in good agreement. Typical geometric variances of overhauled turbine blades are then applied to stator vanes of the newly designed turbine stage. A forced response analysis of these vanes is conducted using a uni-directional fluid-structure interaction approach. The effects of geometric variances on the forced response of the rotor blade are evaluated. It is shown that the vibration amplitudes of the response are significantly higher for some modes due to the additional wake excitation that is introduced by the geometrical variances e.g. 56 times higher for typical MRO-induced variations in stagger-angle.
