When the ball bearing serving under the combined loading conditions, the ball will roll in and out of the loaded zone periodically. Therefore the bearing stiffness will vary with the position of the ball, which will cause vibration. In order to reveal the vibration mechanism, the quasi static model without raceway control hypothesis is modeled. A two-layer nested iterative algorithm based on Newton–Raphson (N-R) method with dynamic declined factors is presented. The effect of the dispersion of bearing parameters and the installation errors on the time-varying carrying characteristics of the ball-raceway contact and the bearing stiffness are investigated. Numerical simulation illustrates that besides the load and the rotating speed, the dispersion of bearing parameters and the installation errors have noticeable effect on the ball-raceway contact load, ball-inner raceway contact state and bearing stiffness, which should be given full consideration during the process of design and fault diagnosis for the rotor-bearing system.

Multiple freedom degrees model of rotor-bearing system taking many factors into account is established, the Newmark-β and shooting method are combined during the stability analysis of periodic motion in such system. The paper focused on the influence law of two eccentric phase difference on the instability speed of rotor-bearing system. The results have shown that the instability speed rises constantly with the eccentric phase difference angle increasing in small eccentricity system. When the two unbalance be in opposite direction, the system reached its maximum instability speed. However, the unstable bifurcation generates mutation phenomenon for large eccentricity system with the eccentric phase difference angle increasing. In summary, the larger initial phase angle can inhibit system instability partly. The conclusions have provided a theoretical reference for vibration control and stability design of the more complex rotor-bearing system.

Multi-DOF model of double-disc rotor-bearing system taking crack and oil film support into account is established, and the continuation shooting method combined with Newmark is also applied to stability analysis of continuous system. This paper mainly studied the variation law of five parameters domain in crack depth and location, then a number of conclusions are found: first, it’s feasible to study the stability of nonlinear rotor-bearing system with crack faults using FEM; secondly, the crack depth and location has a certain impact on instability speed, but the impact is not great and owns its certain law. As the crack depth and location is getting close to the middle position of rotor, due to its impact on the oil film support, the instability speed of system increases. This method and results in this paper provides a theoretical reference for stability analysis and vibration control in more complex relevant rotor-bearing system with crack fault.

The dynamic analysis of a geared rotor-bearing system with time-varying gear mesh stiffness and pressure angle is presented in this paper. Although there are analyses for both of the gear and rotor-bearing system dynamics, the coupling effect of the time-varying mesh and geared rotor-bearing system is deficient. Therefore, the pressure angle and contact ratio of the geared rotor-bearing system are treated as time-varying variables in the proposed model while they were considered as constant in previous models. The gear mesh stiffness is varied with different contact ratios of the gear pair in the meshing process. The nonlinear equations of motion for the geared rotor-bearing system are obtained by applying Lagrange’s equation and the dynamic responses are computed by using the Runge-Kutta numerical method. Numerical results of this study indicated that the proposed model provides realistic dynamic response of a geared rotor-bearing system.

The vast majority of the existing diagnostic studies using deep learning techniques for rotating machinery focus on the vibration analysis under steady rotating speed. Nevertheless, the collected vibration signals are sensitive to time-varying speeds and the vibration sensors may cause structure damage of equipment after long-term close contact. Aiming at these aforementioned problems, a modified Gaussian convolutional deep belief network driven by infrared thermal imaging is proposed to automatically diagnose different faults of rotor-bearing system under time-varying speeds. First, infrared thermal images are measured to characterize the working states of rotor-bearing system to reduce the impact of changeable speeds. Second, Gaussian units are used to construct Gaussian convolutional deep belief network to well deal with infrared thermal images. Finally, trackable learning rate is designed to modify the training algorithm to enhance the performance. The comparison results verify the feasibility of the proposed method, which outperforms the other methods.

AbstractHydrodynamic journal bearings are used in many applications which involve high speeds and loads. However, they are susceptible to oil whirl instability, which may cause bearing failure. In this work, a flexible Jeffcott rotor supported by two identical journal bearings is used to investigate the stability and bifurcations of rotor bearing system. Since a closed form for the finite bearing forces is not exist, nonlinear bearing stiffness and damping coefficients are used to represent the bearing forces. The bearing forces are approximated to the third order using Taylor expansion, and infinitesimal perturbation method is used to evaluate the nonlinear bearing coefficients. The mesh sensitivity on the bearing coefficients is investigated. Then, the equations of motion based on bearing coefficients are used to investigate the dynamics and stability of the rotor-bearing system. The effect of rotor stiffness ratio and applied load on the Hopf bifurcation stability and limit cycle continuation of the system are investigated. The results of this work show that evaluating the bearing forces using Taylor’s expansion up to the third-order bearing coefficients can be used to profoundly investigate the rich dynamics of rotor-bearing systems.
