Abstract: Solutions are obtained for fully developed laminar flow of a compressible fluid through a rotating vertical cylinder. The results enable the velocity, friction loss, and pressure gradient to be ...

Abstract: Assuming the short bearing approximation and constant lubricant properties, the root loci of the pertinent characteristic function were obtained for the linearized model of a simple symmetric ...

Abstract: The unbalance response and stability of centrally preloaded symmetric rigid rotors are investigated. Steady state solutions for unbalance transmissibilities, orbit eccentricity radii, and stability ...

Abstract: This paper investigates theoretically the effect of pressurization on the vibration isolation capability of centrally preloaded squeeze film bearings supporting a rigid rotor which in turn is ...

Abstract: By considering time-dependent terms as external excitation forces, the approximate dynamic response of a cracked horizontal rotor is analyzed theoretically and numerically. The solution is good ...

Abstract: This paper investigates squeeze film bearings supporting a centrally preloaded rigid rotor mounted in antifriction bearings. Assuming the short bearing approximation and isothermal, incompressible ...
