Analysis of Vibration Characteristics for Rotating Braided Fiber-Reinforced Composite Annular Plates with Perforations
In the current study, a comprehensive numerical model for analyzing the vibrational characteristics of braided fiber-reinforced composite (BFRC) rotating annular plate with perforations under diverse boundary constraints was introduced. This model employs the differential quadrature finite element method (DQFEM), which was developed based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and coordinate transformation approach. The BFRC material, specifically a two-dimensional biaxial orthogonal fabric, was utilized to fabricate the annular plate with two distinct types of holes: circular and sector-shaped. The model’s convergence, accuracy, numerical stability, and reliability were confirmed through comparative assessments utilizing data from the literature, from ABAQUS software, and from experimental findings. The analysis focuses on studying the influences of structural properties, material parameters, and boundary restraints on the frequencies of vibration for BFRC rotating annular plates with holes. This theoretical model helps provide scientific basis and technical guidance for the stability and lightweight design of rotating annular plates, such as rotor structures in aircraft engines.
