Abstract

A cracked rotor is modeled by a piecewise linear system due to thebreath of crack in a rotating shaft. The differential equations ofmotion for the nonsmooth system are derived and solved with thenumerical integration method. From the simulation results, it isobserved that a grazing bifurcation exists in the response. Thegrazing bifurcation can give rise to jumps between periodic motions,quasi-periodic motions from the periodic ones, chaos, and intermittentchaos.
