Abstract

Nonstationary vibration of a flexible rotating shaft with nonlinear spring characteristics during acceleration through a critical speed of a summed-and-differential harmonic oscillation was investigated. In numerical simulations, we investigated the influence of the angular acceleration λ, the initial angular position of the unbalance ψn and the initial rotating speed ω on the maximum amplitude. We also performed experiments with various angular accelerations. The following results were obtained: (1) the maximum amplitude depends not only on λ but also on ψn and ω: (2) when the initial angular position ψn changes. the maximum amplitude varies between two values. The upper and lower bounds of the maximum amplitude do not change monotonously for the angular acceleration: (3) In order to always pass the critical speed with finite amplitude during acceleration. the value of λ must exceed a certain critical value.
