Abstract: The free and forced response of spinning, viscoelastic, Rayleigh shafts is studied. Viscoelasticity is included using the three parameter solid model. The closed form polynomial frequency equation ...

Abstract: The response of a rotating Rayleigh beam subjected to an axially accelerated distributed surface line load is studied. Clamped-clamped, clamped-pinned, and clamped-free support conditions and four ...

Abstract: Forced torsional and extensional motions and static strength of rotating, tapered, filament-wound composite shafts subject to deflection-dependent cutting forces typical of end-milling and boring ...
