Flutter Analysis of Rotating Beams with Elastic Restraints
Lvsen Wang, Zhu Su, Lifeng Wang
Abstract: The aeroelastic stability of rotating beams with elastic restraints is investigated. The coupled bending-torsional Euler-Bernoulli beam and Timoshenko beam models are adopted for the structural modeling. The Greenberg aerodynamic model is used to describe the unsteady aerodynamic forces. The additional centrifugal stiffness effect and elastic boundary conditionsare considered in the form of potential energy. A modified Fourier series method is used to assume the displacement field function and solve the governing equation. The convergence and accuracy of the method are verified by comparison of numerical results. Then, the flutter analysis of the rotating beam structure is carried out, and the critical rotational velocity of the flutter is predicted. The results show that the elastic boundary reduces the critical flutter velocity of the rotating beam, and the elastic range of torsional spring is larger than the elastic range of linear spring.
