Module 8 : Transverse Vibrations of Multi-DOF Rotors

Lecture 4 : Transfer Matrix Methods with Gyroscopic effects and Dunkerley's Formula

We have the following data

The transformation of the state between stations 0 and 1 can be written as

(a)

 

(b)

 

(c)

 

 

 

 

(d)

Similarly, the transformation of the state between stations 1 and 2 can be written as

(e)

 

(f)

 

 

 

(g)

On substituting equation (a) into equation (e), we get the overall transformation of the state from station 0 to 2, as

(h)

 

 

(i)

The expanded form of equation (i) has the following form

 

(j)
