6. Obtain the bending critical speeds and mode shapes of a rigid rotor, consist of massless
rigid shaft of 2 m of span, 5 kg mass and diametral mass moment of inertia of 0.1 kg-m2,
supported by flexible bearings as shown in the Figure below. The bearing properties are:
kxx = 2.0x104 N/m, kyy = 8.8x104 N/m, kxy = 1.0x103 N/m, kyx = 1.5x103 N/m, cxx =
1.0 N-s/m, cyy = 1.0 N-s/m, cxy = 1.0x10-1 N-s/m and kxx = 1.0x10-1 N-s/m. Obtain the
unbalance response (amplitude and phase) at bearing locations when the radial
eccentricity of 0.1 mm and axial eccentricity of 1 mm is present in the rotor and locate
critical speeds. (Plot the unbalance responses both for the linear and angular
displacements using MATLAB.)
