StructuralMode

https://bladednextgen.dnv.com/schema/0.4.1/Components/common/StructuralMode.json

An object containing the DampingRatio for a particular structural mode. Used by the support structure to include structural modes and their associated DampingRatios, as well as by the blades to define WholeBladeModeDampingRatios. Users can add any metadata alongside the DampingRatio, such as _Name or _Mode. Bladed will disregard any metadata as long as it is prefixed with an underscore.

  • DampingRatio: number

Properties

DampingRatio: number, optional

The damping ratio on the mode. This is typically in the order of 0.005. An underdamped mode can lead to numerical instability in the simulation, whereas overdamped mode can affect the veracity of the results.
