Abstract
The dynamics of a system consisting of a rotating rigid hub and a flexible composite thin-walled beam is discussed. The nonclassical effects like material anisotropy, rotary inertia and transverse shear are considered in the mathematical model of the structure. Moreover, the hub mass moment of inertia is taken into account. The differential equations of motion featuring beam bending–twist elastic coupling are derived using the Hamilton principle, and the Galerkin method is applied in order to reduce the partial differential governing equations to the ordinary differential equations. Parametric studies are conducted to evaluate beam stiffness coefficients depending on the fiber lamination angle. Next, numerical results are obtained to investigate the impact of hub to beam relative inertia on the natural frequencies of the structure. Cases of forced vibrations of the system are examined where the driving torque is considered as the sum of a constant (mean value) and a periodic component. Simulations show the importance of the hub inertia on the complete system dynamics. A shift of the resonance zones and a vibration absorption are observed.
