The contribution of the late Professor Jørgen W. Lund in the field of rotor dynamics and fluid film bearings is presented in a condensed form with the emphasis on the experimental work and results that confirm and support many of Dr. Lund’s theories and analyses. Part 1(A) covers the subject of rotor balancing by the influence method and Part 1(B) the unbalance response of a flexible rotor. In Part 2(A), experiments on instability and the influence of unbalance on whirl frequency are discussed for two rotors supported in cylindrical bearings. In Part 2(B), experiments using a cylindrical, two-axial groove journal bearing over a range of loads and speeds are reviewed.
