The complex architecture of aircraft engines requires demanding computational efforts when the dynamic coupling of their components has to be predicted. For this reason, numerically efficient reduced-order models (ROM) have been developed with the aim of performing modal analyses and forced response computations on complex multistage assemblies being computationally fast. In this paper, the flange joint connecting two turbine disks of a multistage assembly is studied as a source of nonlinearities due to friction damping occurring at the joint contact interface. An analytic contact model is proposed to calculate the local microslip based on the different deformations that the two flanges in contact take during vibration. The model is first introduced using a simple geometry representing two flanges in contact, and then, it is applied to a reduced finite element model in order to calculate the nonlinear forced response.
