Abstract: Varying compliance (VC) is an inevitable parametrical excitation to rolling bearing systems due to time-varying stiffness from rolling element revolution. Period-doubling instability in the VC primary resonances of ball ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the nonlinear characteristics of varying compliance contact resonance in a rotor–bearing system and takes into consideration the Hertzian contact deformation and internal radial clearance. We created ...

Abstract: The varying compliance (VC) vibration directly reflects the oscillation intensity of a rolling bearing, and it can be fully revealed in the VC resonance. Moreover, we define the bearing vibration intensity as the bearing ...
