Rotor-Bearing Dynamics Technology Design Guide. Part IV. Cylindrical Roller Bearings

摘要

This report is an update of the original Part IV of the Rotor-Bearing Dynamics Design Technology Series, AFAPL-TR-65-45 (Parts I through X). A computer program is given for preparation of cylindrical roller bearing stiffness data input for rotordynamic response programs. The complete stiffness matrix is calculated including centrifugal effects. Considerations such as elastohydrodynamic and cage effects are not included since they have little influence on the calculation of cylindrical roller bearing stiffness. The resulting the program is reasonably small and easy to use. (Author)
