The purpose of this book is to give a basic understanding of rotor dynamics phenomena with
the help of simple rotor models and subsequently, the modern analysis methods for real life …

Faults in rotating systems can cause significant damage to the machinery and can result in
downtime and production losses. Hence, the timely detection and diagnosis of faults are …

In the present paper, an identification algorithm has been developed to estimate parameters
of multiple faults in a turbine-generator system model based on the forced response …

Adequate sealing in rotating machinery reduces secondary leakage and results in more
efficient and stable systems. Labyrinth seals are most common, although brush seals are …

The rotordynamic characteristics of gas turbine seals have been investigated in numerous
previous studies. However, the effects of centrifugal growth were often ignored; and no …

An identification algorithm for simultaneous estimation of residual unbalances and bearing
dynamic parameters by using impulse response measurements is presented for multi …

The effects of two seal design parameters, namely blade (tooth) thickness and blade profile,
on labyrinth seal leakage, as well as the effect of operating a seal in an off-center position …

Two separate identification algorithms, for the simultaneous estimation of the residual
unbalance and bearing dynamic parameters in a rigid rotor-bearing system, have been …

Nowadays, most studies on the dynamic properties of annular gaps focus only on the force
characteristics due to translational motions, while the tilt and moment coefficients are less …

This study proposes an algorithm for the simultaneous identification of residual unbalance
and bearing dynamic coefficients of a single-disc and single-span rotor based on the …
