Abstract: Recently, Crandall and Yeh (1989) reported an interesting phenomenon in the Campbell diagram of a single spool machine. In their words, “It is interesting that . . . the two modes form a ...

Abstract: Since all dynamic characteristics of rotor systems are closely related with rotor rotations, the directivity of modes is very important in rotor dynamics. But the classical modal testing theories ...

Abstract: The present paper introduces a new lateral vibration damper using leaf springs and oil. This damper, named as a leaf spring damper (LSD), has several beneficial rotordynamic advantages. The ...
