Abstract

In this paper, the extended Lagrangian formulation for a one-dimensional continuous system with gyroscopic coupling and non-conservative fields has been developed. Using this formulation, the dynamics of an internally and externally damped rotor driven through a dissipative coupling has been studied. The invariance of the extended or so-called umbra-Lagrangian density is obtained through an extension of Noether’s theorem. The rotor shaft is modeled as a Rayleigh beam. The dynamic behavior of the rotor shaft is obtained and validated through simulation studies. Results show an interesting phenomenon of limiting behavior of the rotor shaft with internal damping beyond certain threshold speeds which are obtained theoretically and affirmed by simulations. It is further observed that there is entrainment of whirling speeds at natural frequencies of the rotor shaft primarily depending on the damping ratio.
