ESTIMATION OF WEAR IN DRY FRICTION DAMPERS AND ITS EFFECT ON VIBRATION REDUCTION

2022-8-31
Çardak, Aykut
Although friction is mostly considered an undesirable phenomenon due to its energy dissipation characteristic, specially designed dry friction dampers utilize this feature to reduce the dynamic response of the system at the resonant frequencies. However, fretting wear due to dry friction during the operational life of the structure may drastically shift the performance from the initial design point and eventually cause drastic failures. Hence, it is important to establish a sophisticated algorithm that couples nonlinear dynamic response solver of frictionally constraint problems with a fretting wear model. In this thesis, the proposed methodology is utilized to find the evolution of dynamic response and surface topography of two widely used case studies which are shrouded blade and grounded blade platforms under ongoing vibration cycles.

The contact interfaces between the components used in high speed systems such as the turbo machinery cause nonlinear vibrations. In order to understand the dynamic characteristic of nonlinear systems, it is important to perform nonlinear vibration analysis. In nonlinear vibration analysis, due to the properties of nonlinear elements used, it is not possible to calculate the Jacobian matrix analytically or it becomes very complicated and difficult, therefore, Jacobian matrix is calculated as numerically.

Adaptive Harmonic Balance Methods, A Comparison

Harmonic balance method (HBM) is one of the most popular and powerful methods, which is used to obtain response of nonlinear vibratory systems in frequency domain. The main idea of the method is to express the response of the system in Fourier series and converting the nonlinear differential equations of motion into a set of nonlinear algebraic equations. System response can be obtained by solving this nonlinear equation set in terms of the unknown Fourier coefficients. The accuracy of the solution is great...
