Abstract

A modeling method for the modal analysis of a rotating composite cantilever beam is presented in this paper. Linear differential equations of motion are derived using the assumed mode method. For the modeling, hybrid deformation variables are employed and approximated to derive the equations of motion. Symmetrical laminated composite beams are considered to obtain the numerical results. The effects of the dimensionless angular velocity, the hub radius and the fiber orientation angle on the variations of modal characteristics are investigated.
