Lifting the vertical rotors by permanent magnets is an advanced technological solution for reducing energy losses in the supports. The disadvantage of this design is the [...]

A frequently used technological solution for reducing lateral vibrations of rotating machines as a result of their unbalance consists in adding damping devices to the rot [...]

The unbalance induces lateral oscillations of rotors and forces transmitted to the rotor casing. The squeeze film dampers with integrated rolling element bearings represe [...]

Material damping has a significant influence on vibrations of flexible rotors and can induce their self excited oscillations. The squeeze film dampers inserted in the rot [...]

In this paper there is proposed a new concept of a damping device working on the principle of squeezing two lubricating layers that are formed by normal and magnetorheolo [...]

This paper deals with MatSol, the new library based on Parallel Matlab environment. This software is developed at the VSB-Technical University of Ostrava and nowadays it [...]

The task is to determine time history of a kinematic excitation so that after the initial transient component dies out, the magnitude of displacement a kinematicaly excit [...]

A usual technological solution how to reduce the time varying forces transmitted between the rotor and its casing consists in application of a flexible suspension and in [...]
