MANE 6130 - Dynamics of Rotating Machinery


Analytical basis of design for rotating machinery mounted on various types of bearing supports, as exemplified by turboshaft engines, centrifugal or axial flow compressors, vehicle drivetrains, etc. Description of analytical and numerical tools for evaluation of dynamic stability, critical speeds, and unbalance response of rotor-bearing systems. Special problems encountered in modern applications operating through and above the critical speeds, and means of their solution, including rigid and flexible rotor balancing and support damper design. Several informal laboratory sessions are included to enhance visualization of rotordynamic phenomena.

Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: MANE 4170.

When Offered: Offered on availability of faculty.
