Rotor system supported by nonlinear bearing such as squeeze film damper (SFD) is widely used in practice owing to its wide range of damping capacity and simplicity in structure. In this paper, an improved and effective Incremental transfer matrix method (ITMM) is first presented by combining ITMM an...
