Abstract

The dynamic response of a spinning Timoshenko beam with general boundary conditions and subjected to a moving load is solved analytically for the first time, Solution of the problem is achieved by formulating the spinning Timoshenko beams as a non-self-adjoint system. To compute the system dynamic response using the modal analysis technique, it is necessary to dtermine the eigenquantities of both the original and adjoint systems. In order to fix the adjoint eigenvectors relative to the eigenvectors of the original system, the biorthonormality conditions which do not involve rigibody motions are illustrated.
