This book discusses various rotor systems, rotor dynamics and dynamics of rotating machinery problems through tutorials. Most of the covered problems can be derived and solved using hand calculations for deeper understanding of the subject. It correlates the examples provided in this book with real machinery where it can be used, and readers can analyse their own simple rotor system based on the variety of examples presented. All problems are supplemented by independent MATLAB® codes for exploring the subject with more ease with graphical outputs.Features:Rotordynamics terminology and phenomena are introduced with very simple rotor-bearing modelsIn-depth analytical dynamic analysis of rotors mounted in flexible bearings and the effect of gyroscopic effects in simple rotor systems are coveredOffers the possibility for the reader to reproduce the results and see how the equations are derived and solved in rotor dynamicsA few examples of simple rotor-bearing-coupling systems, rotor-bearing-foundation systems and two-spool rotors are coveredDirections are provided to extend the present exercise problems and their solutionsExamples are supplemented by MATLAB® codes with detailed solution stepsIncludes multiple-choice questions and their solutionsThis book is aimed at senior undergraduate/graduate students in mechanical engineering, as well as scientists and practice engineers from the field of rotordynamics, rotating machinery/turbomachinery and aerospace engineering.
