Popis: Rotating beams play an important role in engineering structure such as turbine blades, airplane propellers and robot manipulators. Composite materials are widely used in aircraft industries. In helicopter rotor application composite material bring additional features like drastic reduction in number of parts and bulkiness, especially for rotor hub system which is typical large source of profile drive. In this paper the dynamic analysis of composite blade is carried out to find the stresses induced in beam at different locations. The dynamic stress analysis has carried out on composite blade in undamaged and damaged condition to check the increase in stress value due beam damages at different locations. The composite blade is made by Carbon Fiber with 8 layers in 0° and 90° orientation of fibers. This stress analysis is carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics analysis software. The beam has rotated at different RPM and accordingly the stresses are calculated near fixed end, at mid point and at free end.
