Notes:
Stresses due to resonant vibrations induce fatigue damage in turbomachinery bladesjeopardizing their structural integrity. Damping plays a fundamental role in passive control ofresonant stresses. In the present work the effect of ‘crowning’ of dovetail joints on blade-rootfriction damping is for the first time investigated. In detail, the damping of a simplified blade ismeasured under varying centrifugal load for two different joint geometries: a customary dovetailattachment and a ‘crowned’ one. A theoretical model is developed to quantify the dampinggenerated at the contact surfaces. Experimental results and analytical predictions are compared
