SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF A BLADE COUPLE UNDER ROTATION

The aim of the paper is to show the influence of design parameters on the suppression of rotating blade vibration. The derivation of nonlinear mathematical model of a blade couple mutually connected by a friction element is summarized. After that, the linearization of the mathematical model is performed by harmonic balance method. The linearized model is used for sensitivity analysis of real and imaginary parts of eigenvalues in the course of rotation and sensitivity analysis of steady-state response with respect to the design parameters of internal friction coupling.
