rotordynamics analysis by PATRAN and NASTRAN
Hi guys，
Is there anybody use PATRAN and NASTRAN to simulate rotor-bearing sysytem.
After modeling the shat and meshing it, I don't know which element type can be used to
analysis the bearing than contain cross stiffness and damping coefficients.
The following is an exmple:

Faculty Position in Semiconductor Device Manufacturing and Mechanics
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Houston (UH), Cullen College of Engineering seeks a highly motivated and creative person for a faculty position to build a world-class research program on semiconductor device manufacturing and mechanics with emphasis on energy applications. Flexible electronics manufacturing is another area of interest. The University of Houston has recently made a significant investment to establish a 74-acre Energy Research Park (ERP) and has now established a 13,000 sq.ft. state-of-the-art Energy Devices Fabrication Laboratory in the Park.
