Abstract

This paper is concerned with the free vibration of a rotating tapered Timoshenko beam with preset and pre-twist angles. The power series method is used to obtain the frequencies and complex modes of the structure. The rotating velocity related terms are re-classified into three types, namely, static centrifugal terms, dynamic centrifugal terms and the gyroscopic terms. This reclassification provides clearer descriptions of the varying frequencies with respect to the rotating velocity. The gyroscopic coupling among different directions are discussed. The overall contour of the complex modal vibrations is recorded and investigated by time series snapshots of neutral line motions and tip end cross-section motions.
