Abstract

This paper presents the influence of bearing liner compliance on the long-term dynamics of a symmetric rigid rotor on short journal bearings. Both balanced and unbalanced rotors are investigated for different values of the compliance, using (nondimensional) rotor speed as the bifurcation parameter. The results show a decrease in the onset speed of instability of the balanced rotor, and a considerable influence on the 1/2 subharmonic solutions in case of unbalance excitation.
