Abstract

This paper researched on the bending vibration characteristics of composite drive shaft with internal damping. To analyze the unbalanced excitation response in full speed range, a transfer matrix model was built based on the improved Layerwise theory and the numerical damping, and compared with the metal drive shaft. The results show that the effect of internal damping of the composite shaft tube on bending vibration response was different in the subcritical, critical and supercritical speed ranges. Then, the finite element analysis and vibration tests were carried out to verify the analysis results of transfer matrix model.
