This study investigates the vibration characteristics of spinning annular disks with various boundary conditions aiming to investigate the effect of radius ratio parameter and the rotation speed on natural frequencies of a spinning disk analytically for nine different types of boundary conditions. The stress distributions on the disks are obtained for all boundary conditions. The Galerkin method is employed with polynomial functions as approximate displacement functions. Analytical results are presented and compared to the results of the finite element analyses as well as experimental ones.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
