Nonlinear equations of flexural-flexural-torsional oscillations of rotating beamswith arbitrary cross-section

A system of three nonlinear partial differential equations describing the flexural-flexural-torsional vibrations of a rotating slender cantilever beam of arbitrary cross-section is derived using Hamilton’s principle. It is assumed that the center of gravity and the shear center are at different points. The interaction between flexural and torsional vibrations is accounted for in the linear and nonlinear parts of model Published in Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 44, No. 5, pp. 123–132, May 2008.
