Inverse Problem Techniques for the Identification of Rotor-Bearing Systems

The values of bearing parameters of rotating machinery are usually unknown. The problem of determining these unknown parameters are very challenging in rotordynamics and they are needed for various purposes, such as: dynamic analysis and design; control; diagnosis and health monitoring; etc. This article presents a general methodology based on a hybrid optimization scheme for the identification of unknown parameters of flexible rotor-bearing systems. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the techniques used, which are then validated through experimental results.
