1 Introduction
Bearing is an essential component of most rotatingmachines -ey provide the load capacity and stiffness tosupport shafts against static loads and dynamic forcesGas lubricating journal bearings have many advantagesof less heat generation more environment friendlyhigher accuracy and longer lives by comparing withtraditional oil bearings -us the gas lubricatingbearing-rotor system is widely used in engineering ap-plications such as turboexpanders in large-scale cryo-genic systems superprecision machine tools and high-speed machines [1 2] However the inherent charac-teristic of compressibility and low viscidity of gas maycause instability to the gas bearing-rotor system whichlimits the range of the application of gas bearingsFurthermore the low viscosity of gas makes a thin gasfilm generally lower than 50 micrometers As the resultthe assumption of the journal bearing is that the smoothsurface is far from bearing practical application espe-cially for bearing-rotor system operating under a rela-tively small film thickness [3]
Manufacturing error may cause some waves on thesurfaces of bearing -ese waves can change the thicknessdistribution of the gas film which can significantly influencethe static and dynamic performance of the gas bearing-rotorsystem During the past years authors have published manyarticles about the effects of the surface waviness on theperformance of the bearing Dimofte [4] compared thethree-waved journal bearing with both the three-wave-groove bearing and three-lobe bearing [5] they concludedthat the load capacity of the wave bearing is better than othertypes and the performance of the wave bearing is dependenton the parameters and position of waves Rasheed [3]studied the influence of circumferential axial and combinedsurface waviness on the performance of plain cylindricalbearings -ey noted that the circumferential waviness canincrease the load capacity and decrease the friction variablewhen the wave number is below 9 and the axial waviness hasthe adverse effects on load capacity and friction Kwan andPost [6] studied the influence of manufacturing error ofrectangular thrust bearing on the static load and stiffnessperformance -ey concluded that the load capacity andstiffness are sensitive to the manufacturing errors Nagaraju

et al [7] studied the combined influence of bearing flexibilityand surface roughness on the characteristics of the journalbearing system -e results indicated that the longitudinalroughness pattern of the bearing can improve the loadcapacity Ene et al [8] used both the transient and smallperturbationmethods to investigate the dynamic behavior ofthree-wave journal bearing system -e results showed theinfluence of the wave amplitude and oil supply pressure onthe threshold of stability Sharma and Kushare [9] in-vestigated the influence of surface roughness on the per-formance of two-lobe journal bearing -e results indicatedthat the performance of the bearing system is significantlyaffected by the orientation of roughness And thus theperformance of bearing can be enhanced by the properselection of the roughness pattern parameter Wang et al[10] studied the influence of the waves of bearing surface onthe static and dynamic performance of the aerostatic journalbearing -e results showed that the wave amplitudes sig-nificantly affect the static and dynamic performance of thebearing
-e stability is the most important character for thebearing-rotor system Large number of articles has beenpublished to investigate the stability of gas-lubricantbearing-rotor system Among these papers two differentapproaches were published to analyze the dynamic stabilityof the rotor-bearing system one is the linear small per-turbation analysis and another is the nonlinear transientanalysis
Linear small perturbation theory assumes that thejournal obit whirls around its equilibrium position witha small perturbation -is assumption makes the dynamicstiffness and dynamic damping coefficients can be com-puted And then the whirl frequency and critical mass canbe computed by these dynamic coefficients-is method canprovide the instability boundary -us the stability of thesystem can be estimated by the threshold However thismethod cannot present the characters of the motion
Gross and Zachmanoglou [11] studied the performanceof the self-acting journal bearing with infinite length byusing the small perturbation method -e calculation resultsare valid for other types of bearings with high accuracyBelforte et al [12] investigated dynamic coefficients of self-acting gas bearing they used the developed mathematicalmodel and the results were in good agreement with theresults using the nonlinear distribution parameter modelYang et al [13] studied the dynamic coefficients of self-acting tilting pad gas bearing and the results showed therelationship between dynamic coefficients and tilting padperturbation Yu et al [14] used numerical simulations andexperiments to investigate the influence of perturbations onthe dynamic stiffness for aerostatic bearings -e resultsrevealed that the dynamic stiffness coefficients are moresensitive to the frequency of perturbation than the ampli-tude thus they concluded that the dynamic stiffness can beenhanced through active control which can generateperturbations
In nonlinear transient analysis the time-dependentReynolds equation is solved to get the transient forcesand then the transient journal center obits are obtained by
solving the motion equations -e stability of the system canbe judged by the shape of obits -e nonlinear dynamiccharacters are available by using this method which is dif-ferent from the perturbation analysis
Kim and Noah [15] coupled harmonic balance withalternating frequency technique to obtain synchronous andsubsynchronous whirling motions of a Jeffcott rotor-bearingsystem -e results showed that as the parameters of thesystem changed the boundary of flip bifurcation were ob-tained Wang et al [16ndash20] investigated the bifurcationperformance of rigid rotor and flexible rotor supported bya pair of gas bearing and the results presented a betterunderstanding to the nonlinear dynamic characters of thegas bearing-rotor system From the calculation results wecan also find that the dynamic behavior of the rotor center isvery complex which includes periodic and subharmonicresponse Rashidi et al [1 2] presented the effect of operatingparameters on nonlinear dynamic performance for non-circular journal gas-lubricated bearing-rotor system -ecomplex nonlinear dynamic behaviors such as periodic KT-periodic and quasiperiodic responses were analyzed byusing dynamic trajectory the Poincare maps and bi-furcation diagrams Hassini and Arghir [21] used the dy-namic coefficients to analyze the nonlinear characteristicsand the results were in good agreement with the resultscalculated by nonlinear transient Reynolds equationsAbbasi et al [22] studied the vibration control of the rotatingmachine with a high-static low-dynamic stiffness suspen-sion In their study the complex nonlinear dynamic be-havior was showed and the results present that the methodcan suppress the nonperiodic behavior in the consideredspeed range
Generally speaking the vibrations of most manufacturemachines are inevitable which will cause the surface to beunsmooth -e effects of waves on static performances anddynamic coefficients of bearing are investigated in mostprevious published articles However few papers havementioned the effects of waves on the stability and nonlineardynamic performance of the gas bearing-us in this paperthe effects of surface waviness in circumferential and axialdirections on the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of therotor-gas bearing system have been investigated -emethod used in this paper is nonlinear transient approachwhich is similar to the previous articles [18 23] but ourfocuses are different In practical engineering the elastomersare mounted between bearing and shaft thus the elastomersuspension is taken into consideration -e results in thispaper can provide guidance on the design and manufactureof the gas bearing system
2 Numerical Solution of GasPressure Distribution
-e model in this paper is a massless shaft with a disksupported by a pair of self-acting gas journal bearingsGenerally speaking the manufacture precision of rotors isalways better than that of bearings so the waves on thesurface of rotors can be neglected [22] In this paper thejournal bearings used for calculation include axial and

circumferential surface waviness which is shown in Figure 1Before numerical simulation some design assumptions aregiven as follows [16ndash18 23]
(1) Isothermal flow due to the heat conductivity abilityof the bearing material (copper) is much bigger thanthat of gas the heat generation in the gas film willconduct away quickly-us the temperature of gas isconstant
(2) Curvature insensitive the gas film thickness is muchsmaller than the diameter of the shaft So the changeof velocity caused by the curvature is neglected
(3) Constant viscosity due to the viscosity of gas isinsensitive to the changes of pressure we assume it asa virtually constant
(4) -e side flow of the bearing can be neglected
To simplify the model of surface waves we assume thatthe form of waves fits the function of sinusoidal thus thewaviness in circumferential direction can be described as thefollowing form [10 24]

3 Rotor Dynamic Equations and ObitsCalculation Procedure
In this paper we use the nonlinear transient approach toinvestigate the stability of the rotor-bearing system -emodel for calculation is a massless rotor with a disk and itwas supported by a pair of self-acting gas bearings Inengineering reality the elastic dampers such as O-rings aremounted between bearings and shell to improve its sta-bility shown in Figure 2 -e damping force of the elas-tomer obeys the viscous damping law which is one of thesimplest and most widely used -is model is expressed as[25ndash27]

Computation of the center trajectory of rotor andbearing is an iterative procedure -e procedure begins withthe initial equilibrium state -e initial position of the rotor(X0 Y0) is a static balance position which is defined by theexternal loading and rotational speed To estimate the in-fluence of the initial condition the first 600 periodic cal-culation data can be ignored and the nonlinear behavioranalysis is based on the data after the vibration is stable -einitial velocities of the rotor in two different directions areassumed to be zero

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions
Figures 6(a)ndash13(a) are the obits of the rotor center in the (XY) plane Figures 6(b)ndash13(b) and 6(c)ndash13(c) are phase portraitsin (X _X) and (Y _Y) planes respectively Figures 6(d)ndash13(d)and 6(e)ndash13(e) are the logarithmic spectra of the non-dimensional displacement in horizontal and vertical re-spectively Figures 6(f)ndash13(f) are Poincare maps in the (X Y)plane
From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears
-e effects of the number of waviness in the circum-ferential direction on the nonlinear dynamic performance ofthe system are analyzed in which different numbers ofwaviness (N 3 5 and 7) with ms 10 kg ξ 0005 k
4e6Nm are used for calculation Figures 8ndash11 show theobits logarithmic spectrum maps and Poincare map withsurface waviness (N 3 5 and 7) respectively -e com-parison between different numbers of waviness in circum-ferential direction shows that the number of waviness do notchange the nonlinear dynamic performance of the systembut the amplitude of the vibration declines slightly with theincrease of the number of waviness (shown in the

logarithmic spectrum maps) -e increase of the number ofwaves can only improve the static and dynamic performanceof the bearing slightly which is not enough to change thenonlinear dynamic behavior of the system
Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

et al [7] studied the combined influence of bearing flexibilityand surface roughness on the characteristics of the journalbearing system -e results indicated that the longitudinalroughness pattern of the bearing can improve the loadcapacity Ene et al [8] used both the transient and smallperturbationmethods to investigate the dynamic behavior ofthree-wave journal bearing system -e results showed theinfluence of the wave amplitude and oil supply pressure onthe threshold of stability Sharma and Kushare [9] in-vestigated the influence of surface roughness on the per-formance of two-lobe journal bearing -e results indicatedthat the performance of the bearing system is significantlyaffected by the orientation of roughness And thus theperformance of bearing can be enhanced by the properselection of the roughness pattern parameter Wang et al[10] studied the influence of the waves of bearing surface onthe static and dynamic performance of the aerostatic journalbearing -e results showed that the wave amplitudes sig-nificantly affect the static and dynamic performance of thebearing
-e stability is the most important character for thebearing-rotor system Large number of articles has beenpublished to investigate the stability of gas-lubricantbearing-rotor system Among these papers two differentapproaches were published to analyze the dynamic stabilityof the rotor-bearing system one is the linear small per-turbation analysis and another is the nonlinear transientanalysis
Linear small perturbation theory assumes that thejournal obit whirls around its equilibrium position witha small perturbation -is assumption makes the dynamicstiffness and dynamic damping coefficients can be com-puted And then the whirl frequency and critical mass canbe computed by these dynamic coefficients-is method canprovide the instability boundary -us the stability of thesystem can be estimated by the threshold However thismethod cannot present the characters of the motion
Gross and Zachmanoglou [11] studied the performanceof the self-acting journal bearing with infinite length byusing the small perturbation method -e calculation resultsare valid for other types of bearings with high accuracyBelforte et al [12] investigated dynamic coefficients of self-acting gas bearing they used the developed mathematicalmodel and the results were in good agreement with theresults using the nonlinear distribution parameter modelYang et al [13] studied the dynamic coefficients of self-acting tilting pad gas bearing and the results showed therelationship between dynamic coefficients and tilting padperturbation Yu et al [14] used numerical simulations andexperiments to investigate the influence of perturbations onthe dynamic stiffness for aerostatic bearings -e resultsrevealed that the dynamic stiffness coefficients are moresensitive to the frequency of perturbation than the ampli-tude thus they concluded that the dynamic stiffness can beenhanced through active control which can generateperturbations
In nonlinear transient analysis the time-dependentReynolds equation is solved to get the transient forcesand then the transient journal center obits are obtained by
solving the motion equations -e stability of the system canbe judged by the shape of obits -e nonlinear dynamiccharacters are available by using this method which is dif-ferent from the perturbation analysis
Kim and Noah [15] coupled harmonic balance withalternating frequency technique to obtain synchronous andsubsynchronous whirling motions of a Jeffcott rotor-bearingsystem -e results showed that as the parameters of thesystem changed the boundary of flip bifurcation were ob-tained Wang et al [16ndash20] investigated the bifurcationperformance of rigid rotor and flexible rotor supported bya pair of gas bearing and the results presented a betterunderstanding to the nonlinear dynamic characters of thegas bearing-rotor system From the calculation results wecan also find that the dynamic behavior of the rotor center isvery complex which includes periodic and subharmonicresponse Rashidi et al [1 2] presented the effect of operatingparameters on nonlinear dynamic performance for non-circular journal gas-lubricated bearing-rotor system -ecomplex nonlinear dynamic behaviors such as periodic KT-periodic and quasiperiodic responses were analyzed byusing dynamic trajectory the Poincare maps and bi-furcation diagrams Hassini and Arghir [21] used the dy-namic coefficients to analyze the nonlinear characteristicsand the results were in good agreement with the resultscalculated by nonlinear transient Reynolds equationsAbbasi et al [22] studied the vibration control of the rotatingmachine with a high-static low-dynamic stiffness suspen-sion In their study the complex nonlinear dynamic be-havior was showed and the results present that the methodcan suppress the nonperiodic behavior in the consideredspeed range
Generally speaking the vibrations of most manufacturemachines are inevitable which will cause the surface to beunsmooth -e effects of waves on static performances anddynamic coefficients of bearing are investigated in mostprevious published articles However few papers havementioned the effects of waves on the stability and nonlineardynamic performance of the gas bearing-us in this paperthe effects of surface waviness in circumferential and axialdirections on the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of therotor-gas bearing system have been investigated -emethod used in this paper is nonlinear transient approachwhich is similar to the previous articles [18 23] but ourfocuses are different In practical engineering the elastomersare mounted between bearing and shaft thus the elastomersuspension is taken into consideration -e results in thispaper can provide guidance on the design and manufactureof the gas bearing system
2 Numerical Solution of GasPressure Distribution
-e model in this paper is a massless shaft with a disksupported by a pair of self-acting gas journal bearingsGenerally speaking the manufacture precision of rotors isalways better than that of bearings so the waves on thesurface of rotors can be neglected [22] In this paper thejournal bearings used for calculation include axial and

circumferential surface waviness which is shown in Figure 1Before numerical simulation some design assumptions aregiven as follows [16ndash18 23]
(1) Isothermal flow due to the heat conductivity abilityof the bearing material (copper) is much bigger thanthat of gas the heat generation in the gas film willconduct away quickly-us the temperature of gas isconstant
(2) Curvature insensitive the gas film thickness is muchsmaller than the diameter of the shaft So the changeof velocity caused by the curvature is neglected
(3) Constant viscosity due to the viscosity of gas isinsensitive to the changes of pressure we assume it asa virtually constant
(4) -e side flow of the bearing can be neglected
To simplify the model of surface waves we assume thatthe form of waves fits the function of sinusoidal thus thewaviness in circumferential direction can be described as thefollowing form [10 24]

3 Rotor Dynamic Equations and ObitsCalculation Procedure
In this paper we use the nonlinear transient approach toinvestigate the stability of the rotor-bearing system -emodel for calculation is a massless rotor with a disk and itwas supported by a pair of self-acting gas bearings Inengineering reality the elastic dampers such as O-rings aremounted between bearings and shell to improve its sta-bility shown in Figure 2 -e damping force of the elas-tomer obeys the viscous damping law which is one of thesimplest and most widely used -is model is expressed as[25ndash27]

Computation of the center trajectory of rotor andbearing is an iterative procedure -e procedure begins withthe initial equilibrium state -e initial position of the rotor(X0 Y0) is a static balance position which is defined by theexternal loading and rotational speed To estimate the in-fluence of the initial condition the first 600 periodic cal-culation data can be ignored and the nonlinear behavioranalysis is based on the data after the vibration is stable -einitial velocities of the rotor in two different directions areassumed to be zero

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions
Figures 6(a)ndash13(a) are the obits of the rotor center in the (XY) plane Figures 6(b)ndash13(b) and 6(c)ndash13(c) are phase portraitsin (X _X) and (Y _Y) planes respectively Figures 6(d)ndash13(d)and 6(e)ndash13(e) are the logarithmic spectra of the non-dimensional displacement in horizontal and vertical re-spectively Figures 6(f)ndash13(f) are Poincare maps in the (X Y)plane
From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears
-e effects of the number of waviness in the circum-ferential direction on the nonlinear dynamic performance ofthe system are analyzed in which different numbers ofwaviness (N 3 5 and 7) with ms 10 kg ξ 0005 k
4e6Nm are used for calculation Figures 8ndash11 show theobits logarithmic spectrum maps and Poincare map withsurface waviness (N 3 5 and 7) respectively -e com-parison between different numbers of waviness in circum-ferential direction shows that the number of waviness do notchange the nonlinear dynamic performance of the systembut the amplitude of the vibration declines slightly with theincrease of the number of waviness (shown in the

logarithmic spectrum maps) -e increase of the number ofwaves can only improve the static and dynamic performanceof the bearing slightly which is not enough to change thenonlinear dynamic behavior of the system
Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

circumferential surface waviness which is shown in Figure 1Before numerical simulation some design assumptions aregiven as follows [16ndash18 23]
(1) Isothermal flow due to the heat conductivity abilityof the bearing material (copper) is much bigger thanthat of gas the heat generation in the gas film willconduct away quickly-us the temperature of gas isconstant
(2) Curvature insensitive the gas film thickness is muchsmaller than the diameter of the shaft So the changeof velocity caused by the curvature is neglected
(3) Constant viscosity due to the viscosity of gas isinsensitive to the changes of pressure we assume it asa virtually constant
(4) -e side flow of the bearing can be neglected
To simplify the model of surface waves we assume thatthe form of waves fits the function of sinusoidal thus thewaviness in circumferential direction can be described as thefollowing form [10 24]

3 Rotor Dynamic Equations and ObitsCalculation Procedure
In this paper we use the nonlinear transient approach toinvestigate the stability of the rotor-bearing system -emodel for calculation is a massless rotor with a disk and itwas supported by a pair of self-acting gas bearings Inengineering reality the elastic dampers such as O-rings aremounted between bearings and shell to improve its sta-bility shown in Figure 2 -e damping force of the elas-tomer obeys the viscous damping law which is one of thesimplest and most widely used -is model is expressed as[25ndash27]

Computation of the center trajectory of rotor andbearing is an iterative procedure -e procedure begins withthe initial equilibrium state -e initial position of the rotor(X0 Y0) is a static balance position which is defined by theexternal loading and rotational speed To estimate the in-fluence of the initial condition the first 600 periodic cal-culation data can be ignored and the nonlinear behavioranalysis is based on the data after the vibration is stable -einitial velocities of the rotor in two different directions areassumed to be zero

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions
Figures 6(a)ndash13(a) are the obits of the rotor center in the (XY) plane Figures 6(b)ndash13(b) and 6(c)ndash13(c) are phase portraitsin (X _X) and (Y _Y) planes respectively Figures 6(d)ndash13(d)and 6(e)ndash13(e) are the logarithmic spectra of the non-dimensional displacement in horizontal and vertical re-spectively Figures 6(f)ndash13(f) are Poincare maps in the (X Y)plane
From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears

Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

3 Rotor Dynamic Equations and ObitsCalculation Procedure
In this paper we use the nonlinear transient approach toinvestigate the stability of the rotor-bearing system -emodel for calculation is a massless rotor with a disk and itwas supported by a pair of self-acting gas bearings Inengineering reality the elastic dampers such as O-rings aremounted between bearings and shell to improve its sta-bility shown in Figure 2 -e damping force of the elas-tomer obeys the viscous damping law which is one of thesimplest and most widely used -is model is expressed as[25ndash27]

where c is the damping exponent sign() is the signumfunction -e case c 1 is chose which indicates the linearviscous damping model and used for calculation

Computation of the center trajectory of rotor andbearing is an iterative procedure -e procedure begins withthe initial equilibrium state -e initial position of the rotor(X0 Y0) is a static balance position which is defined by theexternal loading and rotational speed To estimate the in-fluence of the initial condition the first 600 periodic cal-culation data can be ignored and the nonlinear behavioranalysis is based on the data after the vibration is stable -einitial velocities of the rotor in two different directions areassumed to be zero

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions
Figures 6(a)ndash13(a) are the obits of the rotor center in the (XY) plane Figures 6(b)ndash13(b) and 6(c)ndash13(c) are phase portraitsin (X _X) and (Y _Y) planes respectively Figures 6(d)ndash13(d)and 6(e)ndash13(e) are the logarithmic spectra of the non-dimensional displacement in horizontal and vertical re-spectively Figures 6(f)ndash13(f) are Poincare maps in the (X Y)plane
From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears
-e effects of the number of waviness in the circum-ferential direction on the nonlinear dynamic performance ofthe system are analyzed in which different numbers ofwaviness (N 3 5 and 7) with ms 10 kg ξ 0005 k
4e6Nm are used for calculation Figures 8ndash11 show theobits logarithmic spectrum maps and Poincare map withsurface waviness (N 3 5 and 7) respectively -e com-parison between different numbers of waviness in circum-ferential direction shows that the number of waviness do notchange the nonlinear dynamic performance of the systembut the amplitude of the vibration declines slightly with theincrease of the number of waviness (shown in the

logarithmic spectrum maps) -e increase of the number ofwaves can only improve the static and dynamic performanceof the bearing slightly which is not enough to change thenonlinear dynamic behavior of the system
Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

Computation of the center trajectory of rotor andbearing is an iterative procedure -e procedure begins withthe initial equilibrium state -e initial position of the rotor(X0 Y0) is a static balance position which is defined by theexternal loading and rotational speed To estimate the in-fluence of the initial condition the first 600 periodic cal-culation data can be ignored and the nonlinear behavioranalysis is based on the data after the vibration is stable -einitial velocities of the rotor in two different directions areassumed to be zero

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions
Figures 6(a)ndash13(a) are the obits of the rotor center in the (XY) plane Figures 6(b)ndash13(b) and 6(c)ndash13(c) are phase portraitsin (X _X) and (Y _Y) planes respectively Figures 6(d)ndash13(d)and 6(e)ndash13(e) are the logarithmic spectra of the non-dimensional displacement in horizontal and vertical re-spectively Figures 6(f)ndash13(f) are Poincare maps in the (X Y)plane
From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears
-e effects of the number of waviness in the circum-ferential direction on the nonlinear dynamic performance ofthe system are analyzed in which different numbers ofwaviness (N 3 5 and 7) with ms 10 kg ξ 0005 k
4e6Nm are used for calculation Figures 8ndash11 show theobits logarithmic spectrum maps and Poincare map withsurface waviness (N 3 5 and 7) respectively -e com-parison between different numbers of waviness in circum-ferential direction shows that the number of waviness do notchange the nonlinear dynamic performance of the systembut the amplitude of the vibration declines slightly with theincrease of the number of waviness (shown in the

logarithmic spectrum maps) -e increase of the number ofwaves can only improve the static and dynamic performanceof the bearing slightly which is not enough to change thenonlinear dynamic behavior of the system
Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

with previous investigations [23 28] as is shown in Figure 3-e results in this paper are in good agreement with theprevious investigations thus the validity of the program isverified
-e rotor unbalance mass is an important parameter forrotating machine which influence the response of the rotor-bearing system [28 29] In this paper what we focused on isthe influence of the surface waviness to the nonlinear dy-namic response So the single rotor unbalance value(015 μm) is selected in this study -e rotor-bearing systemis used in the turbomachine with a superhigh speed -usthe mass of the rotor is usually quite small less than 05 kg
In the numerical integration the aspect ratio (LD) ofself-acting journal gas bearing for calculation is chosen as144 -e lubricant in the film is air -e parameters ofelastomer are set as follows k 4e6Nm ξ 0005 and c 1To show the influence of the surface waviness to the non-linear dynamic response clearly the bifurcation diagrams ofthe rotor-bearing system with flat surface are plotted whichis presented in Figure 4 From the results we can concludethat when the half mass of the rotor is equal or less than018 kg the rotor center presents a regular periodic motionBut motion loses its regularity and becomes irregular whenthe half mass of the rotor increased to 019 kg
Figure 5 shows the bifurcation diagrams of the rotatingsystem with circumferential surface waviness In this cal-culation we assume that the surface waviness is only in-cluded in the circumferential direction of the bearing andthe number of waves is equal to 5 and the amplitude of thewaves is 1 micrometer Compared with the results in Fig-ure 4 the discrete point of the system with circumferentialwaviness is much bigger than the system with flat surfacewhich indicated that the waviness in circumferential di-rection can increase the stability of the system obviously
In order to show nonlinear dynamic performance of thesystem clearly a set of maps such as the rotor center obits
phase portraits logarithmic spectra maps in two directionsand Poincare maps are used to analyze the nonlinear dy-namic performance in different conditions

From Figures 6ndash8 when the half mass of the rotor is lessthan 075 kg the vibration is mainly caused by the massunbalance the frequency of rotating is much bigger thansubharmonic frequency thus the rotor center obits showa regular periodic motion When the half mass of the rotor isin the range of 075 kg and 1 kg the amplitude of sub-harmonic vibration increased and cannot be ignored -emotion losses its periodic motion and subharmonic peri-odic motion appears However the amplitude of motion isalso small When the half mass of the rotor is bigger than10 kg shown in Figures 8 and 9 the amplitude of vibrationbecomes much bigger and a closed curve occurs in thePoincare map which indicated that quasiperiodic motionappears
-e effects of the number of waviness in the circum-ferential direction on the nonlinear dynamic performance ofthe system are analyzed in which different numbers ofwaviness (N 3 5 and 7) with ms 10 kg ξ 0005 k
4e6Nm are used for calculation Figures 8ndash11 show theobits logarithmic spectrum maps and Poincare map withsurface waviness (N 3 5 and 7) respectively -e com-parison between different numbers of waviness in circum-ferential direction shows that the number of waviness do notchange the nonlinear dynamic performance of the systembut the amplitude of the vibration declines slightly with theincrease of the number of waviness (shown in the

Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

logarithmic spectrum maps) -e increase of the number ofwaves can only improve the static and dynamic performanceof the bearing slightly which is not enough to change thenonlinear dynamic behavior of the system
Figures 8 12 and 13 display the obits logarithm am-plitude spectrum maps and Poincare maps of the rotorcenter with different surface waviness amplitudes in cir-cumferential direction In this solution three cases (A 1 2and 3) with other parameters such as ms 1 kg ξ 0005and k 4e6Nm are used and compared -e nonlinear
dynamic performance changes from quasiperiodic motion(A 1) to regular periodic motion (A 4) -is means thelarge amplitude of the waviness can increase the stability ofthe system but the amplitude of the waviness is restricted bythe gas clearance From the obits and logarithm spectrummaps in these pictures above we can find that the increase ofthe amplitude of the surface waviness in circumferentialdirection can decline the amplitude of the subharmonicfrequency-at is because the increase of the amplitude of thewaviness can increase the static and dynamic performance

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

Figure 9 Obits Poincare map and amplitude spectrum of rotor center (ms 11 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm A 1μm and N 5)
10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

10 Shock and Vibration
Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing

Figure 14 displays the bifurcation maps of the surfacewaviness in the axial direction In this solution ms 1 kg ξ 0005 k 4e6Nm and A 1μm are used By comparingwith the flat surface bearing system we can conclude that thenonlinear dynamic performance of the system with axialsurface waviness is similar to that of the system with flatsurface -e discrete point of the system with axial surfacewaviness is 02 kg a little bigger than that of the system withflat surface (019 kg) But the existence of surface wavinessresults in the decrease of the minimum gas film which easilycauses the collision friction between rotor and bearing
5 Conclusions
In this paper the effects of surface waviness in circumfer-ential and axial direction to the nonlinear dynamic char-acteristics of the rotor-bearing system with elastomersuspension have been investigated -e nonlinear dynamic
behaviors under different conditions have been investigatedby inspecting the rotor center obits logarithm spectrummaps and Poincare maps -e results of this study are moreapplied to the practical engineering and can provide a for-ward guidance of the manufacture for the bearing
By comparing with the rotor-bearing system with flatsurface the surface waviness in circumferential directiondoes raise the stability of the system For rotor-bearingssystem with surface waviness in circumferential direction(N 5 and A 1μm) the discrete point in the bifurcationdiagram (075 kg) is much bigger than that of flat surfacesystem (018 kg)
-ree values (N 3 5 and 7) of the number of surfacewaviness are investigated and compared -e nonlineardynamic performance is insensitive to the number of thewaviness in circumferential direction With the increase ofthe number of the waviness the amplitude of the vibrationdeclines slightly

-e increase of the amplitude of the surface waviness incircumferential can improve the static and dynamic per-formance of the bearing obviously With the increase of theamplitude the motion of the system is changed fromquasiperiodic motion to regular periodic motion -us thelarge amplitude can increase the stability of the system
-e effect of waviness in the axial direction is in-vestigated by comparing with the flat surface -e axialsurface waviness cannot change the nonlinear dynamicperformance of the system But the existence of the wavinesscan reduce the minimum gas clearance which is damage forthe bearing
