Dynamics of Rotating Machines

by Michael I. Friswell, Arthur W. Lees, Seamus D. Garvey, et al.

Book Overview

This book equips the reader to understand every important aspect of the dynamics of rotating machines. Will the vibration be large? What influences machine stability? How can the vibration be reduced? Which sorts of rotor vibration are the worst? The book develops this understanding initially using extremely simple models for each phenomenon, in which (at most) four equations capture the behavior. More detailed models are then developed based on finite...
