The objective function applied to express the optimum response of the rotor-bearing system is presented based on the complex mode analysis. Two kinds of problems about the calculation of control forces are solved: in the nonconstraint condition the optimization of control forces is treated as the evaluation of a set of linear equations; and the Powell and complex methods are used to calculate the constrained control forces. Numerical examples are also given.

A method for minimizing forced harmonic vibration of a rotor-bearing system by the application of external control forces is presented. The frequency of the vibration is assumed known. In cases of mass unbalance or bend in the shaft this will be shaft rotation frequency and can usually be monitored without difficulty. The control forces could be provided by electromagnetic actuators. The control strategy presented does not require any knowledge of the system parameters and, provided the uncontrolled system is stable, cannot destablize the system. Results from a simulation are shown.


This paper presents a computationally fast and efficient least-squares method to minimize the vibration of any general rotor-bearing system by the application of external control forces. The D-optimality concept is used to optimize the force locations. The proposed method provides a wide range of statistical information, and the sensitivity of the optimum response to changes in the control forces. Magnetic bearings can be applied to implement the open-loop adaptive vibration control strategies outlined in the paper. These components can also be used to inject a multi-frequency test signal as required for identi­fication studies.

A mode synthesis method used in the dynamic analysis of multi-shaft rotor-bearing system has been developed in this paper. By introducing the idea of connecting springs and dampers, and using gyroscopic modes instead of complex modes in the mode synthesis, this method differs not only from classical component mode synthesis method, but also from complex mode synthesis. Several numerical examples show the advantages of this method.

This article presents the experimental and statistical methodology for localized fault analysis in the rotor-bearing system. These defects on outer race, on inner race, and on a combination of ball and outer race are considered. In this study speed, load and defects were considered as the essential process variables to understand their significance and effects on vibration response for the rotor-bearing system. Three factors at three levels were considered for experimentation, and the experiment was designed for L27 based on design of experiments (DOE) methodology. From the experiments, the vibration response results are recorded in terms of root mean square value for the analysis. Response surface methodology (RSM) is used for identifying the interaction effect of varying process parameters upon the response of vibrations by response surface plot. The rotor-bearing test setup is used for experimentation and is analyzed by using DOE. This study establishes the prediction of fault in the rotor-bearing system in combined parametric effect analysis and its influence with DOE and RSM.

Abstract The present work aims to analyze the natural and whirl frequencies of a slant-cracked functionally graded rotor-bearing system using finite element analysis for the flexural vibrations. The functionally graded shaft is modelled using two nodded beam elements formulated using the Timoshenko beam theory. The flexibility matrix of a slant-cracked functionally graded shaft element has been derived using fracture mechanics concepts, which is further used to develop the stiffness matrix of a cracked element. Material properties are temperature and position-dependent and graded in a radial direction following power-law gradation. A Python code has been developed to carry out the complete finite element analysis to determine the Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of a slant-cracked rotor subjected to different thermal gradients. The analysis investigates and further reveals significant effect of the power-law index and thermal gradients on the local flexibility coefficients of slant-cracked element and whirl natural frequencies of the cracked functionally graded rotor system.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to evolve a guideline for scientists and development engineers to the failure behavior of electro-optical target tracker system (EOTTS) using fuzzy methodology leading to success of short-range homing guided missile (SRHGM) in which this critical subsystems is exploited. Design/methodology/approach – Technology index (TI) and fuzzy failure mode effect analysis (FMEA) are used to build an integrated framework to facilitate the system technology assessment and failure modes. Failure mode analysis is carried out for the system using data gathered from technical experts involved in design and realization of the EOTTS. In order to circumvent the limitations of the traditional failure mode effects and criticality analysis (FMECA), fuzzy FMCEA is adopted for the prioritization of the risks. FMEA parameters – severity, occurrence and detection are fuzzifed with suitable membership functions. These membership functions are used to define failure modes. Open source linear programming solver is used to solve linear equations. Findings – It is found that EOTTS has the highest TI among the major technologies used in the SRHGM. Fuzzy risk priority numbers (FRPN) for all important failure modes of the EOTTS are calculated and the failure modes are ranked to arrive at important monitoring points during design and development of the weapon system. Originality/value – This paper integrates the use of TI, fuzzy logic and experts’ database with FMEA toward assisting the scientists and engineers while conducting failure mode and effect analysis to prioritize failures toward taking corrective measure during the design and development of EOTTS.
