v2.02.128 SDLL128 - Shaft line with bearing characteristics depending on the speed of rotation

Summary:

This test makes it possible to validate the calculation of the rotation modes of a rotating shaft system in the presence of bearings whose stiffness and damping characteristics depend on the speed of rotation.

In this test, we have a rotor model with three disks, supported by two hydrodynamic bearings, whose stiffness and damping matrices are non-symmetric and depend on the speed of rotation. This example is taken from the qualification manual for ROTORINSA, [bib2], a finite element software program designed to predict the dynamic behavior of rotors under bending.
