โฆ Synopsis
Improper aligning of shafts through couplings often leads to severe vibration problems in many rotating machines. The rotor-bearing system is modelled using higher order finite elements by considering deflection, slope, shear force, bending moment with eight degrees of freedom per node. The reaction forces, moments developed due to flexible coupling misalignment are derived and introduced in the model. The imbalance response in two harmonics is evaluated. The increase in harmonics with misalignment can easily be modelled by using FEM analysis. The location of the coupling with respect to the bending mode shape has a strong influence on the vibrations.

The vibration properties of a ring subjected to angular velocity components applied simultaneously about three mutually perpendicular axes are investigated. Ring structures have potential applications as multi-axis rate sensors and hence the e!ects of angular velocity on the vibration properties are
The spectral distribution function is used to characterize the vibration signal of rotating machinery. It is shown to be a more robust indicator than conventional power spectral density estimates, but requires only slightly more computational effort. The method is demonstrated with a model of a defe
