This study is primary to develop relevant techniques for the bearing of wind turbine, such as the intelligent monitoring system, the performance assessment, future trend prediction and possible fault classification etc. The main technique of system monitoring and diagnosis is divided into three algorithms, such as the performance assessment, performance prediction and fault diagnosis, respectiv...

in this paper, a simple and efficient method for modeling and solving the equations of a rotor with any number of disks, bearings and mass unbalances is presented using the assumed modes method. this model consists of a continuous shaft, arbitrary number of mass unbalances in any axial location and phase angle, and any number of rigid disks and bearings. this arrangement is extensively used in ...

Internal radial clearance is a key factor influencing bearing fatigue life. Moreover, bearings inevitably suffer from various wears and tears, which result in gradual increase of shorten Monitoring changes using vibration can effectively indicate the wear provide good leading time to perform maintenances. Previous studies show that at ball pass frequency on outer race (BPFO) be based for monito...

In rotordynamic simulations, rolling element bearing waviness is often accounted using nonlinear models that are solved with a numerical integration scheme in time domain. This approach generates accurate system response, but the method limited terms of computational efficiency. study proposes two novel methods for solution responses caused by excitation frequency domain, and compares result pr...

After lower-extremity orthopedic trauma and surgery, patients are often advised to restrict weight bearing on the affected limb. Conventional training methods are not effective at enabling patients to comply with recommendations for partial weight bearing. The current study assessed a novel method of using real-time haptic (vibratory/vibrotactile) biofeedback to improve compliance with instruct...

Advanced energy storage systems for electric guns and other pulsed weapons on combat vehicles present significant challenges for rotor bearing design. Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) present one emerging bearing option with major advantages in terms of lifetime and rotational speed, and also favorably integrate into high-speed flywheel systems. The Department of Defense Combat Hybrid Power Syst...

An investigation is carried out on the systematic analysis of the dynamic behavior of the hybrid squeeze-film damper HSFD mounted a rotor-bearing system with strongly nonlinear oil-film force and nonlinear rub-impact force in the present study. The dynamic orbits of the system are observed using bifurcation diagrams plotted using the dimensionless rotating speed ratio as control parameters. The...
