Vibration analysis of nonlinear-dynamic rotor-bearing systems and defect detection

Abstract

This work is dedicated to my parents, Christos and Agapi, to my teacher Prof. Papadopoulos Christos "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science.He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed" -Albert Einstein.
