Model Reduction Methods for Rotor Dynamic Analysis : A Survey and Review

Abstract EN

The focus of this literature survey and review is model reduction methods and their application to rotor dynamic systems.

Rotor dynamic systems require careful consideration in their dynamic models as they include unsymmetric stiffness, localized nonproportional damping, and frequency-dependent gyroscopic effects.

The literature reviewed originates from both controls and mechanical systems analysis and has been previously applied to rotor systems.

This survey discusses the previous literature reviews on model reduction, reduction methods applied to rotor systems, the current state of these reduction methods in rotor dynamics, and the ability of the literature to reduce the complexities of large order rotor dynamic systems but allow accurate solutions.
