Abstract

The internal damping has a significant influence on the dynamic performance of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) drive shaft. In this paper, the traditional damping strain energy model of composite structures was modified using the reverse off-axis transformation. The damping ratio of CFRP hollow tube pieces is then tested using the vibration method, and the accuracy and efficiency of the modified damping numerical model are verified. Meanwhile, the modified model was proposed to study the damping characteristics and contribution rate of the CFRP hollow tube. The results show the influence law of the laminate parameters on the bending and torsion damping of the CFRP hollow tube. How the strain energy dissipation affects the damping of the CFRP hollow tube is discussed, and the mechanism relationship between the laminate parameters and damping is explored. This study provides theoretical guidance for the design of the bending and torsion damping of CFRP hollow tube.
