Modal Analysis of a Beam with a Tip Rotor by Using a Fundamental Response

摘要

The shape modes of a clamped-frec beam model with a tip rotor are determined by using a dynamical basis that is generated by a fundamental spatial free response. This is a non-classical distributed model for the displacements in the transverse directions of the beam which turns out to be coupled through boundary conditions due to rotation. Numerical calculations are performed by using the Ritz-Rayleigh method with several approximating basis.
