The first volume of the second edition of Rotor Systems covers the analysis of simple rotors, including bearing and gyroscopic effects, with the help of simple rotor-bearing models. It is biased toward the finite element method analysis for complex rotors, both for torsional and transverse vibrations, including the transfer matrix method. In torsional vibration geared-rotor and branched system is also covered. The torsional and transverse vibration analysis covers the free and forced vibration analyses. Eigenvalue analysis helps in developing Campbell diagram for obtaining critical speeds. Unbalance response analysis helps in finding rotor response with rotor speed.

Key Features:

- Covers rotor analysis from simple single degree of freedom to multi-degree of freedom with lots of solved examples

- Illustrates bearing and seals theory with a perspective on rotor dynamics

- Discusses the finite element method and transfer matrix methods for torsional and transverse vibration analysis

- Includes elemental equations derived from the Euler–Bernoulli beam model, Rayleigh’s beam model, and Timoshenko beam model

- Explores the Campbell diagram for forward and backward critical speed analysis, also Bode plot for unbalance response analysis with rotor speed.

This book is aimed at senior undergraduate/graduate students in mechanical engineering, rotor dynamics, rotating machinery/turbomachinery, and related fields.

Rajiv Tiwari was born in 1967 at Raipur in Madhya Pradesh. India. He graduated in B.E. in 1988 (Mechanical Engineering) from Ravishankar University, Raipur and M.Tech. (Mechanical Engineering) in 1991 and Ph.D. (Mechanical Engineering) in 1997 from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India. He worked as Research Officer at University of Wales, Swansea, UK for one year in 2001 on deputation. He was elevated to Associate Professor in 2002 and to Professor in 2007 at IIT Guwahati. He has been deeply involved in research area of Rotor Dynamics (i.e. especially on Identification of mechanical system parameters, e.g. the bearings, seals and rotor crack dynamic parameters, Fault diagnosis of machine components like bearings, gears, pumps, and induction motor and application of active magnetic bearings in condition monitoring of rotating machinery). His research area also includes rolling element bearing design and analysis for high-speed applications. He has completed three projects from Aeronautical Research & Development Board (ARDB), India on these topics. He has been offering consultancy for last several years to Indian industries like Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Trivandrum; Combat Vehicle R&D Establish (CVRDE) Chennai; Tata Bearings, Kharagpur; apart from other local industries in the northeast of India. One of the European power industries the Skoda Power, Czech Republic has also taken consultancy of seal dynamic parameter estimation for steam turbine applications.Dr. Tiwari has been author of over 130 journal and conference papers.
