Mechanisms and Machine Science

This book presents the proceedings of the 11th IFToMM International Conference on Rotordynamics, held in Beijing, China on 18-21 September 2023. This conference is a premier global event that brings together specialists from the university and industry sectors worldwide in order to promote the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and information on the latest developments and applied technologies in the dynamics of rotating machinery. The coverage is wide ranging, including, for example, new ideas and trends in various aspects of bearing technologies, issues in the analysis of blade dynamic behavior, condition monitoring of different rotating machines, vibration control, electromechanical and fluid-structure interactions in rotating machinery, rotor dynamics of micro, nano and cryogenic machines, and applications of rotor dynamics in transportation engineering. Since its inception 32 years ago, this conference has become an irreplaceable point of reference for those workingin the field and this book reflects the high quality and diversity of content that the conference continues to guarantee.
