Abstract

The effect of the applied direction and magnitude of loads on the stability and natural frequency of flexible rotors is analyzed, when the rotors are subject to nonconservative torque and force. The stability criterion derived from the energy and variational principle is discussed and a general Galerkin’s method which utilizes admissible functions is employed for numerical analysis. Illustrative examples are treated to demonstrate the analytical developments.
