Abstract The dynamic response of a power law based functionally graded (FG) rotor-bearing system with a slant crack has been analysed in the present work. The vibration response of an FG rotor-bearing system with a slant crack has been simulated using the Houbolt time marching scheme for different crack depths. The time-domain vibration responses are converted into the frequency domain using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to identify the crack features in order to detect and monitor the cracks. The sub-harmonic frequency components of the steady-state frequency spectrum were centred on the FG rotor’s operating speed, separated by the interval frequency corresponding to the torsional frequency. The sub-harmonic frequency components of the transient state frequency domain were found to be centred on the critical speed of the FG rotor system. The subharmonic frequency components of the dynamic response confirm the existence of a crack in the FG rotor system, which could be used to detect the crack in an FG rotor system.

The test rig of two-span rotor-bearing system with rub-impact and crack faults was constructed. The vibration of the rotor-bearing system was observed for different conditions, such as single rub-impact fault, double rub-impact faults and coupling faults of rubbing and crack. The 3D-waterfall spectrum of rotor system was used to analyze the dynamic characteristics of the system during faults. The results indicate there appears 6-superharmonic frequency component on double rub-impact faults. The amplitudes of subharmonic frequencies decrease obviously and it of superharmonic frequencies increases on coupling faults of rubbing and crack, and the superharmonic frequency components are different obviously in different span.

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.

Main Influence

The dynamic model of the three-span rotor-bearing system with rub-impact fault was set up. The influence to nonlinear dynamics behaviors of the rotor-bearing system that induced by rub-impact of one disc, two discs and three discs were numerically studied. The main influence of the rotor system response by the rub-impact faults are in the supercritical rotate speed. There are mutations of amplitudes in the responses of second and third spans in supercritical rotate speed when rub-impact with one disc, and there are chaotic windows in the response of first span, and jumping changes in second and third spans when rub-impact with two or three discs.

As sophisticated mechanical equipment, the rotor system of aero-engine is assembled by various parts; bolted flange joints are one of the essential ways of joints. Aiming at the analysis of the nonlinear vibration characteristics of the rotor-bearing system with bolted flange joints, in this paper, a finite element modeling method for a rotor-bearing system with bolted flange joints is proposed, and an incremental harmonic balance method combined with arc length continuation is proposed to solve the dynamic solution of the rotor system. In order to solve the rotor system with rolling bearing nonlinearity, the alternating frequency/time-domain process of the rolling bearing element is deduced. Compared with the conventional harmonic balance method and the time-domain method, this method has the characteristics of fast convergence and high computational efficiency; solving the rotor system with nonlinear bearing force; overcome the shortcoming that the frequency–response curve of the system is too sharp to continue solving. By using this method, the influence of bearing clearance and stiffness on vibration characteristics of the rotor system with bolted flange joints is studied. The evolution law of the state of the rotor system with bolt flange is investigated through numerical simulation and experimental data. The results indicated that the modeling and solving method proposed in this paper could accurately solve the rotor-bearing system with bolted flange joints and analyze its vibration characteristics.

A dynamic model of a double-disk rub-impact rotor-bearing system with rubbing fault is established. The dynamic differential equation of the system is solved by combining the numerical integration method with MATLAB. And the influence of rotor speed, disc eccentricity, and stator stiffness on the response of the rotor-bearing system is analyzed. In the rotor system, the time history diagram, the axis locus diagram, the phase diagram, and the Poincaré section diagram in different rotational speeds are drawn. The characteristics of the periodic motion, quasiperiodic motion, and chaotic motion of the system in a given speed range are described in detail. The ways of the system entering and leaving chaos are revealed. The transformation and evolution process of the periodic motion, quasiperiodic motion, and chaotic motion are also analyzed. It shows that the rotor system enters chaos by the way of the period-doubling bifurcation. With the increase of the eccentricity, the quasi-periodicity evolution is chaotic. The quasiperiodic motion evolves into the periodic three motion phenomenon. And the increase of the stator stiffness will reduce the chaotic motion period.

The present work deals with natural and whirl frequency analysis of a porous functionally graded (FG) rotor–bearing system using the finite element method (FEM). Stiffness, mass and gyroscopic matrices are derived for porous and non-porous FG shafts by developing a novel two-noded porous FG shaft element using Timoshenko beam theory (TBT), considering the effects of translational inertia, rotatory inertia, gyroscopic moments and shear deformation. A functionally graded shaft whose inner core is comprised of stainless steel (SS) and an outer layer made of ceramic (ZrO2) is considered. The effects of porosity on the volume fractions and the material properties are modelled using a porosity index. The non-linear temperature distribution (NLTD) method based on the Fourier law of heat conduction is used for the temperature distribution in the radial direction. The natural and whirl frequencies of the porous and non-porous FG rotor systems have been computed for different power law indices, volume fractions of porosity and thermal gradients to investigate the influence of porosity on fundamental frequencies. It has been found that the power law index, volume fraction of porosity and thermal gradient have a significant influence on the natural and whirl frequencies of the FG rotor–bearing system.

The nonlinear dynamics theory is increasingly applied in the dynamics analysis of tilting pad journal bearing-rotor system. However, extensive work on system dynamics done previously neglects the influence caused by the moment of inertia of the pad. In this paper, a comparison is made between the responses of the rotor in the bearings with and without pad inertia effect. Taking the Jeffcott rotor system as an example, the characteristics of bearing-rotor system, such as bifurcation diagram, cycle response, frequency spectrum, phase trajectories, and Poincaré maps, were attained within a certain rotation rate range. The pivotal oil-film force of tilting pad journal bearing was calculated by database method. The results directly demonstrate that considering the influence of the pad moment of inertia, system dynamics characteristics are found more complicated when rotor-bearing system works around natural frequency and system bifurcation is observed forward when rotor-bearing system works on high-speed range.

The vibrations of parallel geared rotor—bearing system have been intensively discussed; however, little attention has been paid to the dynamic analysis of angled bevel-geared system supported on journals. In the present work, the non-linear dynamics of a bevel-geared rotor system on oil film bearings is studied. First, the dynamic model is developed under some assumptions, such as rigid rotors, short-bearings, small teeth errors, and so forth. Then, the non-linear dynamic behaviours of both the balanced and unbalanced rotor system are analysed, respectively, in which the equilibrium points, limit cycles, their stability, and bifurcations are paid more attention. Numerical results show that in the bevel-geared rotor system under the action of non-linear oil film forces there exists a series of complex non-linear dynamic phenomena of rotor orbits, such as Hopf bifurcation, torus-doubling bifurcation, and jump phenomenon. All these features can help us to understand the dynamic characteristics of bevel-geared rotor—bearing system at design stage and during running period. Finally, some concerned problems during the investigation are also present.
