In this paper, modal analysis of wind-power generator rotor system was performed by using finite element method. Experimental modal analysis of generator rotor system was performed and the result were compared with analytical ones. Sensitivity method and localized modification method were used to update finite element model. As a result of updating finite element model, errors of natural freguency were reduced within 0.5％ and MAC value was improved near by l. Stability characteristics of wind-power generator rotor-bearing system through harmonic analysis about several external force will be analyzed using finite element model.

A MDOF vibration analysis of the rotor is performed using combined modeling of transfer matrix method and finite element method(FETM). The method combines the advantages of both matrix. Each rotor is modelled using transfer matrix method and treated one element or several ones. The finite element method is applied in composing a system matrix and finding roots. The method used in this is more efficient than conventional finite element method in saving calculation time and provides good results in complex MDOF rotor model.

In this paper, finite element modeling was performed for vibration analysis of a rotor system installed in sunroof motor, and analysis process was developed for natural frequency and unbalance response analysis. At the same time, to reduce analysis modeling error caused by the difference between analysis and measured values, finite element model updating was conducted using an optimization algorithm, i.e. hybrid genetic algorithm and simulated annealing (HGASA) method. For this end experimental modal test was carried out and by using the measured frequency response function (FRF), model updating was performed considering both cases where core coil was removed and included. And acceptable result was obtained. Also, dynamic property coefficient of bush bearing which influences vibration response of the rotor system was estimated.

This paper discusses a model order reduction for large order rotor dynamics systems results from the finite element discretization. Typical rotor systems consist of a rotor, built-on parts, and a support system, and require prudent consideration in their dynamic analysis models because they include unsymmetric stiffness, localized nonproportional damping and frequency dependent gyroscopic effects. When the finite element model has a very large number of degrees of freedom because of complex geometry, repeated dynamic analyses to investigate the critical speeds, stability, and unbalanced response are computationally very expensive to finish within a practical design cycle. In this paper, the Krylov-based model order reduction via moment matching significantly speeds up the dynamic analyses necessary to check eigenvalues and critical speeds of a Nelson-Vaugh rotor system. With this approach the dynamic simulation is efficiently repeated via a reduced system by changing a running rotational speed because it can be preserved as a parameter in the process of model reduction. The Campbell diagram by the reduced system shows very good agreement with that of the original system. A 3-D finite element model of the Nelson-Vaugh rotor system is taken as a numerical example to demonstrate the advantages of this model reduction for rotor dynamic simulation.

In this study, three-dimensional rotordynamic analyses have been conducted using equivalent beam, hybrid and fun three-dimensional models. The Present computational method is based on the general finite element method with rotating gyroscopic effects of a rotor system. General purpose commercial finite element code, SAMCEF which includes practical rotordynamics module with various types of rotor analysis methods and bearing elements is applied. For the purpose of numerical verification, comparison study for a benchmark rotor model with support bearings is performed first. Detailed finite element models based on three different modeling concepts are constructed and then computational analyses are conducted for the realistic and complex three-dimensional rotor system. The results for rotor stability and mass unbalance response are presented and compared with the experimental vibration test conducted in this study.

When we design a controller for the active magnetic bearings that support a large rotor, it is important to have an accurate model of the rotor. For the case of the flywheel that is used to store energy, an accurate rotor model is especially important because the dynamics change with respect to the running speed due to gyroscopic effects. In this paper, we present a procedure of obtaining an accurate rotor model of a large flywheel energy storage system using finite-element method. The model can predict the first and the second bending mode which match well with the experimental results obtained from a prototype flywheel energy storage system.

The wind turbine rotor blade is faced with various aeroelastic problem as rotor blades become bigger and lighter by the use the composite material. The aeroelastic analysis of a wind turbine rotor blade requires its aerodynamic model and structural model. For effective aeroelastic analysis, it is required the simple and effective structural model of the blade. In the present study, we introduce the effective equivalent structural modeling of the blade for aeroelastic analysis. The equivalent beam model of the composite blade based on its 3D finite element model is established. The free vibration analysis shows that the equivalent beam model of the blade is equivalent to its 3D finite element model.

To get accurate vibration analysis of rotor-bearing systems, finite element models of high speed rotating shaft, unbalance disk, and fluid film journal bearing are developed. The study includes the effects of rotary inertia, gyroscopic moment, damping, shear deformation, and axial torque in the same model. It does not include the axial force effect, but the extension is straighforward. The finite elements developed can be used in the analysis design of any type of multiple rotor bearing system. To show the accuracy of the models, numerical examples are demonstrated.
