Abstract

In this work, we study the dynamic behavior of rotors built by additive manufacturing (3D printing). First, we design and test them experimentally in a test rig and check their unbalance response. Second, we adjust a mathematical model according to the experimental data. With this model, we design a rotor with geometric periodicity and test it experimentally. The geometric periodicity introduces interesting dynamic characteristics in the system, such as bandgaps in the frequency response, which is quite important to light rotating systems as the ones built by additive manufacturing.
