Dynamics of rotor systems with clearance and weak pedestals in full contact

• Many rotating machineries are supported by bearings with clearance, which are further clamped in, compared to the bearing stiffness, weak pedestals. As have been reported in several studies, it is essential to choose a proper clearance in order to avoid unwanted vibrations. When rotating machineries supported by bearings with clearance are subjected to stationary loads (gravity, magnetic pull etc.), it may not loose contact between the shaft and the bearing (i.e. full contact). However, even in full contact unwanted dynamics can occur which is of interest in this paper. It is found that the clearance give raise to anisotropic pedestal stiffness. It is further shown that some of the resonance frequencies decrease with the clearance.
