Counted on daily to perform any number of vital societal tasks, turbomachinery uses high rotational speeds to produce amazing amounts of power efficiently. The key to increasing its longevity, efficiency, and reliability lies in the examination of rotor vibration and bearing dynamics, a field called rotordynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA valuable textbook for beginners as well as a handy reference for experts, \u003ci\u003eMachinery Vibration and Rotordynamics\u003c\/i\u003e is teeming with rich technical detail and real-world examples geared toward the study of machine vibration.
