Simple Rotor Analysis through Tutorial Problems
About this book
This book discusses various rotor systems, rotor dynamics and dynamics of rotating machinery problems through tutorials. Most of the covered problems can be derived and solved using hand calculations for deeper understanding of the subject. It correlates the examples provided in this book with real machinery where it can be used, and readers can analyse their own simple rotor system based on the variety of examples presented. All problems are supplemented by independent MATLAB® codes for exploring the subject with more ease with graphical outputs.
Features:
- Rotordynamics terminology and phenomena are introduced with very simple rotor-bearing models
- In-depth analytical dynamic analysis of rotors mounted in flexible bearings and the effect of gyroscopic effects in simple rotor systems are covered
- Offers the possibility for the reader to reproduce the results and see how the equations are derived and solved in rotor dynamics
- A few examples of simple rotor-bearing-coupling systems, rotor-bearing-foundation systems and two-spool rotors are covered
- Directions are provided to extend the present exercise problems and their solutions
- Examples are supplemented by MATLAB® codes with detailed solution steps
- Includes multiple-choice questions and their solutions
This book is aimed at senior undergraduate/graduate students in mechanical engineering, as well as scientists and practice engineers from the field of rotordynamics, rotating machinery/turbomachinery and aerospace engineering.
