Rotor dynamics is both a classical and a modern branch of engineering science.However, analyzing the rotational behavior of flexible bodies, especially those with irregular shapes like propellers and blades, requires more modern tools such as finite elements, which is what this book focuses on.
Rotor dynamics is both a classical and a modern branch of engineering science. The rotation of rigid bodies, mainly those with regular shapes such as cylinders and shafts, has been well understood for more than a century. However, analyzing the rotational behavior of flexible bodies, especially those with irregular shapes like propellers and blades, requires more modern tools such as finite elements, hence the title and focus of the book. The new edition of this title tackles a detailed understanding of computational and numerical solutions and includes a deeper finite element technology foundation, making it a self-contained title. It focuses on the theoretical foundation of rotor dynamics and the engineering analysis of industrial structures. The theoretical foundation is built on physics, calculus and finite element technology chapters. Computational and numerical techniques provide free vibration and response analyses solutions.

Key Features:



Focuses on the theoretical foundation of rotor dynamics and the engineering analysis of industrial structures.
Includes a comprehensive industrial application case study based on modern wind turbine development projects.
Includes in-depth understanding of modern tools like finite element analysis which is required to analyze the rotational behavior of flexible bodies.

Arne Vollan studied aeronautical engineering at the Technical University of Trondheim (Norway) and Aachen (Germany) and holds the degree Diplom Ingenieur. He was employed by several aeronautical companies such as VFW-Fokker (now Airbus), Helicopter Technik Muenchen, Dornier, Nationaal Lucht- en Ruimtevaartlaboratorium, and Pilatus Aircraft as a dynamic and aeroelastic specialist. He was also a consultant and developed programs for the analysis of rotating structures like wind turbines and propellers. Since 2002 he has been working at AeroFEM GmbH in Switzerland on rotor dynamics and the aeroelasticity of aircraft and large wind turbines. He is still active in consulting and the new industrial application case study presented in the last chapter is a result of that activity. Louis Komzsik is a graduate of the Technical University of Budapest with an engineering degree and the Eötvös University of Sciences in Budapest with a mathematics degree, and he holds a Doctorate from the Technical University of Budapest, Hungary. He was employed by the Hungarian Shipyards from 1972 to 1980 and worked at the McDonnell-Douglas Corporation in 1981 and 1982. He was the chief numerical analyst leading the development of NASTRAN at the MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation from 1983 to 2003 and served in a similar capacity at Siemens PLM Software in California from 2003 to 2016. Since his retirement from industry in 2017, he has been lecturing at The University of California in Irvine and at Obuda University in Budapest, Hungary where he is presently Professor Emeritus of Applied Mathematics.
