In this paper, we present a review of the experimental identification of dynamic parameters
of bearings in a rotating machine. Major emphasis is given to vibration-based identification …

The purpose of this book is to give a basic understanding of rotor dynamics phenomena with
the help of simple rotor models and subsequently, the modern analysis methods for real life …

Current theoretical bearing models differ in their stiffness estimates because of different
model assumptions. In this study, a finite element/contact mechanics model is developed for …

Fluid film journal bearings (FFBs) are used to support high-speed rotors in turbomachinery
which often operate above the rotor first bending critical speed. The FFBs provide both …

Linear models and synchronous response are generally adequate to describe and analyze
rotors supported by hydrodynamic bearings. Hence, stiffness and damping coefficients can …

Over the decades, vibration-based condition monitoring has become well accepted and
widely used to identify faults in rotating machines. However, the quantification of faults may …

A nonlinear dynamic coupled model for hydropower station system, which contains the
model of water-carriage system, water turbine system, speed governor system, generator's …

An identification algorithm for simultaneous estimation of residual unbalances and bearing
dynamic parameters by using impulse response measurements is presented for multi …

Two separate identification algorithms, for the simultaneous estimation of the residual
unbalance and bearing dynamic parameters in a rigid rotor-bearing system, have been …

Faulty machinery generates exaggerated vibration that leads to fatigue and catastrophic
failure of critical components of machinery and even sometime worker's life. Hence, the fault …
