Summary: This study aimed to extend the finite element method to cope with elastic-plastic problems by introducing the s-version FEM. The s-version FEM, which overlays a set of local mesh with fine element size on the conventional FE mesh, simplifies domain discretisation and provides accurate numerical predictions. Previous applications of the s-version FEM were limited to elastic problems, lacking instructions for stress update in plasticity. This study presents detailed instructions and formulations for addressing plasticity problems with the s-version FEM and analyzes a stress concentration problem with linear/nonlinear material properties.

By developing a model and conducting detailed analysis, it is discovered that mass imbalance leads to nonlinear time-varying characteristics and there is no steady-state torsional vibration in small unbalanced rotors. Under largely unbalanced conditions, both resonant and unstable behavior can be observed, and increasing lateral damping can suppress instability and reduce lateral amplitude in the resonance region.
