Abstract

This paper deals with a correlation between simulation and test results of woven composite fan blades excited by 18 piezoelectric actuators. A nonlinear simulation including friction at blade attachment is performed on the reduced system in which the piezoelectric actuators are condensed on their internal potential Degrees Of Freedom before being integrated in the simulation. The results of the correlation are interesting, especially for the first bending mode despite a difference in the sliding phase of the contact.
