Abstract

Vibration characteristics of the machinery could be affected by the support stiffness of rotors in rotor-roller bearing systems. Understanding the effect of the support stiffness of rotor on the vibration characteristics of a rotor-roller bearing system is very useful for the design and vibration control of the machinery. In this study, a nonlinear dynamic finite element model for a rotor-roller bearing system is presented using an explicit dynamic finite element software package. The effect of the support stiffness of rotor on the vibration characteristics and contact forces for the rotor-roller bearing system is discussed. The simulation results show that the deliberate use of specific support stiffness of the rotor is constructive in reducing the vibration level of the rotor-roller bearing systems in the industrial transmission machinery. Also, it seems that the explicit dynamic finite element method can be applied to study the vibration characteristics of the rotor-roller bearing systems.
