Abstract
This work concerns the numerical modeling of geometric nonlinear vibrations of slender structures in rotation using an original reduced order model based on the use of dual modes along with the implicit condensation method. This approach is an improvement of the classical ICE method in the sense that the membrane stretching effect is taken into account in the dynamic resolution. The dynamics equations are firstly presented and the construction of the reduced order model (ROM) is then proposed. The second part of the paper deals with numerical applications using the finite element method, first for a 3D cantilever beam, then for an Ultra High Bypass Ratio (UHBR) fan blade. In the applications considered, the proposed method predicts more accurately the geometrically nonlinear behavior than the ICE method.
