| In the presented research the dynamics of a thin rotating composite beam with surface bonded MFC actuator are considered. A parametric analysis aimed at finding the most efficient location of the actuator on the beam is presented. Gyroscopic effects resulting in the beam's initial strain and therefore non-zero voltage in PZT are taken into account. Within the frame of the study maximising the system's response observed in vibration modes for uncoupled and coupled motions is examined. The results are compared to the case of a nonrotating beam and also to the maximum response of the beam with the actuator placed at different positions. To perform the analysis an ABAQUS finite element model of an electromechanical system under consideration is developed. The multi-layer composite beam structure is modelled by shell elements according to a layup-ply technique; the MFC actuator is modelled by 3D coupled field piezoelectric elements. Both modal analysis and frequency response spectra are performed to obtain the structural modal parameters and response amplitude, respectively. The analysis is repeated for three different orientations of the beam's cross-section with respect to the plane of rotation (i.e. arbitrary assumed pitch angles); in all cases the condition constant angular speed is preserved. This work is fundamental for continuing the research for control of dynamics of rotating composite beams with active elements. |
