Abstract
Aeroelastic analyses of bladed disks are routinely performed using Finite Element Methods (FEM) to evaluate the dynamic behavior of aircraft engine components. These analyses produce complex-valued eigenvectors, which can be transformed into real-domain mode shapes for engineering interpretation. A major post-processing challenge is the classification of the large number of modes represented in Frequency vs Nodal Diameter (FreND) diagrams, a task that is currently performed manually by domain experts and is therefore time-consuming and difficult to scale. This thesis investigates the use of Deep Learning for automated modal classification. In particular, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is designed to identify modal shape labels from processed aeroelastic data and to emulate the expert labeling procedure.
The objective is not merely to reduce analysis time, but also to assess whether data-driven classification can achieve sufficient accuracy, robustness, and consistency to support engineering decision-making
