Large rotating machines are elements of great importance to the production chain and they can eventually operate under unpredicted or off-the-norm conditions, thus resulting to failure and signifcant economic losses. One way of reducing the consequences of such off-the-norm operation of these machines is the modification of the characteristics of the bearings that support the rotor. Howev…
The objective of this project is analyzing the dynamic effects in oilwell drill strings during backreaming operation, i.e. when the drill string is pulled out from the well. In this case, a laboratory test rig shall be built for correlating a reduced order numerical model, considering the uncertainty of parameters (stochastic modeling). The correlated numerical model will be used to analy…

This project lies within the area of machine design, aiming at more efficient rotating machines by improving the lubricated contacts in journal bearings. For that, one studies the behavior of hydrodynamic bearings with textured shafts, aiming at reducing the friction in the contact interface. Despite the amount of works in the literature, they mainly focus on bearing texturization (textur…
The project lies within the design of a hydrodynamic bearing whose tilting pads are controlled by electromagnetic actuators (a new solution design). By mounting the actuators in the bearing housing, we can apply electromagnetic forces on the pads, therefore changing their angular position in relation to the housing. As a consequence, we can modify the dynamic characteristics of the rotor-…
In this work, we study the dynamic behavior of rotors built by additive manufacturing (3D printing). First, we design and test them experimentally in a test rig and check their unbalance response. Second, we adjust a mathematical model according to the experimental data. With this model, we design a rotor with geometric periodicity and test it experimentally. The geometric periodicity int…
