Followers driven by high-speed, dwell-type, rotating disk cams can exhibit undesirable residual vibrations during dwell. These vibrations have been studied with linear models mostly using results from transient vibration analysis, assuming quiescent initial conditions. Here, the residual vibrations are studied with closed-form solutions to the steady-state vibrations obtained with a circular convolution integral. The steady-state vibrations, which can extend over the entire cam cycle, are periodic and continuous. It is shown that significant differences exist between the residual vibration results obtained from steady-state analysis and those obtained from transient analysis. The undamped steady-state vibrations exhibit resonances. Away from the resonance conditions, the steady-state residual vibration amplitudes are consistently smaller than those predicted by transient analysis. The results from the two approaches agree quantitatively only for relatively stiff and damped follower systems.
