Summary
Taking a ship propulsion system as an example, it will be shown how vibration analysis could be performed by means of the simulation program MEDYNA even in the design phase.
Vibration calculation of a complete propulsion system and thus a system of coupled rigid and elastic bodies is primarily of importance when considering a long, slender ship structure with “weak stern constructions”. Such designs are to be found in the field of naval vehicles.
Besides the general eigenvalue analysis the forced vibration due to propeller forces will be considered.
