Fall Rotordynamics Course Dates Announced
The fall rotordynamics short is now scheduled for October 25-28, 2021. This edition of the short course will be offered virtually, and is being organized by Mark Corbo of No Bull Engineering. Registration is available online. Offered annually for 10+ years, this four-day course routinely receives highly favorable reviews from attendees. We will cover all aspects of rotordynamics, with a focus process and industrial machinery.
Three instructors will be participating to share their expertise:
- Lateral Rotordynamics – Malcolm Leader, P.E. (President – Applied Machinery Dynamics) – Malcolm has long been known as one of the best rotordynamicists in the world and is also well known for his keen troubleshooting abilities. He has written several dozen papers on these topics.
- Bearings – Dr. Erik Swanson, P.E. (President – Xdot Engineering and Analysis) – In addition to traditional fluid-film bearings, Erik is well-known for his expertise in foil and magnetic bearings. Additionally, Erik is a wizard at using the DYROBES rotor/bearing computer code, which all of the presented case studies have been done in.
- Torsional Vibration – Mark A. Corbo, P.E. (President – No Bull Engineering) – In addition to having authored some of the most well-known and best-received papers on the subject, he is currently serving as the Chair for the Torsional section of the API 684 rotordynamics tutorial.
