To improve the simulation efficiency of mistuned blisk, a method called receptance substructure component modal synthesis method (RSCMSM) is proposed to reduce its degrees of freedom (DOFs). The advantage of this method is that only the interface DOFs need to be solved, which observably enhances the computational efficiency. The modal frequencies, maximum modal shape and frequency response function are calculated via RSCMSM. It is seen that the smooth frequency band is governed by blade vibration and the steep frequency band is governed by disk or bladed-disk coupling vibration. In addition, a peak is observed for the tuned blisk but many peaks appear for the mistuned blisk and many small wave crests are observed near the peak. To verify validity of this method, the computational time of RSCMSM is compared with high fidelity finite element method (HFFEM) and classical substructure component modal synthesis method (CSCMSM), which manifests that the computational efficiency increases by 32.19 %–80.82 % than that of HFFEM when the mistuned level is 0 %~5 %. Moreover, computational efficiency of RSCMSM is increased by 0.85 %–7.56 % than that of CSCMSM. The validity of RSCMSM is verified for calculating the complex mechanical structure.
