In this paper a new analytical method for evaluation of rotor under large deformation is addressed. Model is presented in general form to include also composite rotors. Presented simulation procedure is based on variational work method and has capability to account for geometric nonlinearity, large displacement, nonlinear support effect and rotor contacting other machine components. New shape functions are presented which capable to predict accurate nonlinear profile of rotor. The closed form solutions for various operating and malfunction situations are expressed. Analytical simulation results are discussed}, journal = {International Journal of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering}, volume = {3}, number = {7}, year = {2009}, pages = {790 - 793}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9952}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/31}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 31, 2009}, }
