Abstract
The problem of rotordynamic instability has had a long history and a significant impact on the design and operation of rotating machinery. As the search for higher power density and sophistication intensified, so have efforts to understand better and solve the instability problem and the difficulties often associated with it, such as noise and vibration, excessive bearing loads, loss of performance and catastrophic failure.
