XLRotor Overview

XLRotor is a complete Rotordynamics Suite that is versatile, fast, and easy to learn. XLRotor includes modules for most types of bearings and seals plus popular instability models. In addition, XLTorsion for torsional dynamics and XLCoupled for coupled lateral-torsional are always included with XLRotor and not cost-adding modules. Take the Tour, review the features, read the FAQs, and learn about the multitude of utilities available to help you do your job faster and easier.

Tour
