Abstract: The contribution of the late Professor Jørgen W. Lund in the field of rotor dynamics and fluid film bearings is presented in a condensed form with the emphasis on the experimental work ...

Abstract: The squeeze-film damper, undergoing a whirl orbit as may be caused by rotor unbalance, resists eccentricity of the whirl orbit with a static stiffness which is proportional to the dynamic force ...
