Rotor Model

A new rotor model is developed in this paper to explore the dynamic coupling effect of roll-yaw motion. The rotor model employs a 6 degree-of-freedom Jeffcott rotor with a breathing crack. Based on the energy method and Lagrange principle, equation of motion is derived in yawing coordinate system with consideration of unbalance mass. The breathing crack model is established by Zero Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) method based on the crack released strain energy concept in fracture mechanics. SIF method is used to determine the crack closure line by computing SIF for opening mode. The vibration responses of the cracked rotor system are solved by Gear’s method. The coupling effect of yawing and rolling motion is studied in this paper to investigate vibration response of cracked rotor system. With the yawing motion, the dynamics of the rotor-bearing system is changed by additional stiffness and force terms. The parametric study is conducted to analyze the effect of yawing rate and acceleration on the crack breathing behavior. Finally, the vibration responses of the nominal and damaged rotor systems are analyzed to find out the indication for the damage detection and health monitoring.

This paper develops a new finite element rotor model with consideration of the coupling effect of rolling and yawing motion. The crack model is built using released strain energy concept in fracture mechanics. The nonlinear breathing behavior of cracks on the rotor shaft is simulated through Zero Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) method. The vibration responses of rotor system are solved by Newmark Integration method for both nominal and damaged system. With the yawing motion, the additional force will be induced for beam element and center disk. Incorporated with breathing crack model, the breathing behavior of crack is comprehensively studied in terms of the rolling rate, yawing rate and yawing acceleration. The clear understanding of crack breathing behavior is beneficial for the damage detection and health monitoring of the rotor system.

This paper proposes a vibration-based damage identification method based on 6-dof Jeffcott rotor system, which is based on harmonic balance and Newton-Raphson methods. First, the equations of motion are derived by using energy method and Lagrange principle. The crack model is based on strain energy release rate (SERR) in fracture mechanics and modified to accommodate 6-dof Jeffcott rotor model. Then, Gear’s method is used to solve the vibration responses of nominal and damaged rotor systems. By processing vibration responses, the transfer function shifts between nominal and damaged systems are taken as the input of damage identification algorithm. Finally, damage severity can be correlated with the damage parameter estimated via developed damage identification model. Numerical examples are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness in identifying the breathing crack in the rotor system.

Cracked Rotor System

The modeling of a cracked rotor system with an open or breathing transverse crack is addressed here. The cracked rotor with an open crack model behaves as an asymmetric shaft. Hence, the time-varying area moments of inertia of the cracked section are employed in formulating the periodic finite element stiffness matrix for both crack models which yields a linear time-periodic system. The harmonic balance method (HB) is used in solving the finite element (FE) equations of motions for studying the dynamic behavior of the cracked rotor system. The unique behavior of the whirl orbits during the passage through the subcritical rotational speeds and the sensitivity of these orbits to the unbalance force direction can be used for early crack detection of the cracked rotor for both crack models. These whirl orbits were verified experimentally for the open crack model in the neighborhood of 1/2 of the first critical rotational speed where a good match with the theoretical whirl orbits was observed.

The application of the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method to the vibration response of a cracked Jeffcott rotor model is investigated here. The covariance matrices of horizontal and vertical whirl amplitudes are formulated based on the numerical integration response and the experimental whirl response, respectively, for the considered cracked rotor system. Accordingly, the POD is directly applied to the obtained covariance matrices of the numerical and experimental whirl amplitudes where the proper orthogonal values (POVs) and the proper orthogonal modes (POMs) are obtained for various crack depths, unbalance force vector angles and rotational speeds. It is observed that both POVs and their corresponding POMs are highly sensitive to the appearance of the crack and the unbalance angle changes at the neighborhoods of the critical. The sensitivity zones of the POVs and POMs to the crack propagation coincide with the unstable zones of the cracked system obtained by Floquets theory.

Operating of rotating machinery with a rotor crack is a risk condition, since the rotor crack grows gradually and may fail causing a catastrophic accident. Therefore, it is very important to detect the occurrence of a crack on rotating machinery in early stages. The authors have used the simple two-degree-of-freedom cracked rotor model, and investigated the usage of periodic excitation for the detection of the rotor crack. This paper constructs a finite element rotor model with breathing crack element, and performs the numerical investigation. The dynamic responses of a cracked rotor system under applied periodical external excitation are investigated. The occurrences of various kinds of nonlinear sub-resonances are observed numerically, and the dynamical characteristics of these sub-resonances are clarified. The influences of the position and depth of the crack are clarified. Furthermore, these sub-resonances due to crack are observed in the experiment. This result made us enable to detect the occurrence of a rotor crack.

Cracked Rotor System

Fatigue cracking of the rotor shaft is an important fault observed in rotating machinery of key industry, which can lead to catastrophic failure. Nonlinear dynamics of a cracked rotor system with fractional order damping is investigated by using a response-dependent breathing crack model. The four-th order Runge-Kutta method and ten-th order CFE-Euler (Continued Fraction Expansion-Euler) method are introduced to simulate the proposed system equation of fractional order cracked rotors. The effects of derivative order of damping, rotating speed ratio, crack depth, orientation angle of imbalance relative to the crack direction and mass eccentricity on the system dynamics are demonstrated by using bifurcation diagram, Poincare map and rotor trajectory diagram. The results show that the rotor system displays chaotic, quasi-periodic and periodic motions as the fractional order increases. It is also found that the imbalance eccentricity level, crack depth, rotational speed, fractional damping and crack angle all have considerable influence on the nonlinear behavior of the cracked rotor system.

Cracked Rotor System

Fatigue cracking of the rotor shaft is an important fault observed in the rotating machinery of key industries, which can lead to catastrophic failure. Nonlinear dynamics of a cracked rotor system with fractional order damping is investigated by using a response-dependent breathing crack model. The fourth-order Runge–Kutta method and tenth-order continued fraction expansion-Euler (CFE-Euler) method are introduced to simulate the proposed system equation of fractional order cracked rotors. The effects of the derivative order of damping, rotating speed ratio, crack depth, orientation angle of imbalance relative to the crack direction, and mass eccentricity on the system dynamics are demonstrated by using a bifurcation diagram, Poincaré map, and rotor trajectory diagram. The simulation results show that the rotor system displays chaotic, quasi-periodic, and periodic motions as the fractional order increases. It is also observed that the imbalance eccentricity level, crack depth, rotational speed, fractional damping, and crack angle all have considerable influence on the nonlinear behavior of the cracked rotor system. Finally, the experimental results verify the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.
