Abstract
In this paper the modal shapes of a light, thin laminate beam with active elements were evaluated. Cases with one or two Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) active elements adhered onto a glass-epoxy cantilever beam were analyzed. The systems under consideration were modeled in ABAQUS finite element software to derive mode shapes numerically. Next, the modes were compared to each other to estimate the influence of PZT patches. First 20 modes of natural vibrations were examined including bending, torsion and axial ones. The comparisons of mode shapes were performed according to Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) analysis. The examination of changes of mode shapes of the original beam with placement of active elements is the starting point in prior of optimal placements of PZTs with final goal the control of dynamics of helicopter blades.
