Research in rotor dynamics started almost one hundred years back. Early research focused on simple issues like prediction of critical speeds. However with the advent of fast computational facilities, and accurate and versatile measurement techniques, research in this area has accelerated over the past few decades. In the process researchers have observed several new phenomena which are not fully understood even today. The demand from industry for light weight, high performance and reliable rotor-bearing systems is the driving force for research and new developments in the field of rotor dynamics.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">The symposium</span> aims at bringing together, leading researchers from all over the world to share their research experiences, and more importantly to set up the directions for future research in rotor dynamics.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Topics</span> to be covered<br />*Analytical and computational methods in rotor dynamics<br />*Experimental methods in rotor systems<br />*Instability in rotor bearing systems<br />*Misalignment, bow, crack, rub/impact, shrink fit and foundation effects<br />*Nonlinear, parametric, asymmetry and other effects in rotors<br />*System identification, model updating and SDM techniques<br />*Active/semi active rotor vibration control<br />*Smart material applications for rotor vibration control<br />*Developments in bearings, dampers and seals<br />*Non-metallic, composite rotors<br />*Diagnostics, prognostics and condition monitoring of rotors<br />*Analysis of bladed disc systems<br />*Applications to special systems - geared systems, transmissions, vertical rotors, electrical machinery, aerospace propulsion systems like high speed turbopumps, multi-spool gas turbines etc., smart and micro rotor systems.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Accommodation</span><br />In Delhi during the Symposium period, kindly note the following.<br />We are arranging limited accommodation in Guest Houses of IIT Delhi and similar organizations in Delhi.
