Abstract
SYNOPSIS A computer program representing a shaft and rotor whirling in bearings which allows for realistic oil film boundary conditions and non-circular bearing profiles has been developed. It gave good agreement with experimental results published by Brown and France. With the aim of increasing understanding of the influence of bearing profile on system instability, the program calculates the timewise variation of the energy in translational motion supplied to the rotor by oil film forces. One case is illustrated.
