Abstract

One of the most significant factors affecting the natural frequency of transverse vibrations of shaft-slide bearing systems is the stiffness coefficient of the slide bearing. The need to consider the influence of heterogeneity of stiffness coefficient of the bearing on its natural frequency is caused by the fact that when the bearing is worn, the modulus of longitudinal elasticity of the material changes, and since the bearing wears unevenly, the non-uniform distribution of the stiffness coefficient occurs. The problem of determining the natural frequency of transverse vibrations of a ship propeller shaft based on the foundation with a variable stiffness coefficient along the length has been studied. The differential equation of the propeller shaft vibrations written taking into account the stiffness coefficient variable along the shaft length is considered. It has been noted that, in the general case, this equation is a fourth-order partial differential equation and cannot be integrated in quadratures for an arbitrary stiffness distribution function along the shaft length. A numerical-analytical method for determining the natural frequency of a system based on approximation of the stiffness distribution function by a piecewise-linear function is proposed. The method is applied to calculate the natural frequencies of the pipeline section taking into account the functions describing the change in the stiffness coefficient. The proposed method allows to consider the section of the shafting enclosed in the stern bearing, subject to the non-uniform distribution of the stiffness coefficient of the bearing, and is the basis for improving the accuracy of finding the true natural frequency of transverse vibrations of the shafting.
