Abstract

The effect of gyroscopic moments on the critical speeds of a shaft-disk system mounted in short end bearings is investigated. Representation of the shaft as having continuously distributed mass and elasticity allows accurate determination of higher critical speeds. Frequency equations are obtained for the critical speeds associated with both backward and forward whirling modes. The first four critical speeds (backward and forward whirling modes) are given for a range of shaft and disk sizes and for various disk locations on the shaft. Experimental verification is given for the first and second critical speeds.
