Abstract

The finite difference solution presented in Chap. 5 can provide the full dynamic (transient and steady-state) response of a rotating blade. However, one may only be interested in finding the steady-state response. In this chapter, finding an alternative solution method with this capability is in order. Such an alternative solution can also provide a means for verifying the steady-state results obtained by using the method presented in Chap. 5.
