Modeling and analysis for coupled flexural-torsional spinning beams with unsymmetrical cross sections

Abstract

The structural modeling and dynamic properties of a spinning beam with an unsymmetrical cross section are studied. Due to the eccentricity and spinning, transverse deflections along the two principal directions and the torsional motion about the longitudinal axis are coupled. The structural model of the beam is established based on the Hamilton principle and by incorporating the torsional inertia. Moreover, because of its significant influence on characteristics for the non-circular cross-sectional beam, the warping effect is considered in the formulation. The proposed model is effectively validated in two cases: the spinning beam with a symmetric cross section and the cantilevered beam with an unsymmetrical cross section. Then the effects of the spinning speed on natural frequencies and mode shapes are investigated. Numerical results reveal that the critical speed is altered with respect to noncoincidence of the centroid and the shear center. For the beams with strong warping rigidities, the warping effect cannot be neglected due to significant influence on natural frequencies.

Modeling and vibration analysis of a spinning assembled beam–plate structure reinforced by graphene nanoplatelets

“…Mirtalaie et al [13] investigated nonlinear free vibrations of rotating beams, where the stretching of the beam's centerline leads to the nonlinearities. Considering the bending-torsion effect, Wang et al [14] analyzed the vibration performance of rotating beams with unsymmetrical cross sections. Aouadi et al [15] discussed the effects of Euler and centrifugal forces terms on free vibrations of spinning Rayleigh beams.…”

Cutting stability and optimization of process parameters for the large-pitch screw high-feed turning

“…Wang et al. 15 modeled and analyzed coupled flexural-torsional spinning beams with unsymmetrical cross sections by using the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, Hamilton principle, and global assumed mode method. Although the mentioned studies have established various vibration models of rotating shafts subjected to moving loads, they only modeled and analyzed the polished rod.…”
