Theoretical Analysis on Transient Torsional Vibrations of Two Stroke Low Speed Diesel Engines

Abstract

Theoretical analysis on transient torsional vibration was started from the early 1960s for high power synchronous motor application. Particularly, its simulation and measuring techniques in marine diesel engine field have been steadily studied by some classification societies and large marine diesel engine designers. This paper introduces the simulation method on transient torsional vibration of two stroke low speed diesel engine using the Newmark method.
