Abstract: The paper presents new results on instability of general rotating systems with small axial asymmetry and damping. Rotating systems with arbitrary finite degrees of freedom are considered. Instability conditions are derived for nonresonant and resonant rotation speeds characterized by simple and double eigenvalues. As an application, the stability problem of a rotating elastic shaft with small internal and external damping forces and asymmetric imperfections is studied. The numerical example shows validity and accuracy of the derived analytical formulae for the instability regions. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
