Aero-engine rotor system contains a variety of connectors such as bolts and bearings. However, the dynamic behaviors of the connection are complex in actual engineering. In this paper, the dynamic behavior of the rotor-bearing system with bolted joints and the influence of the parameters of the joints on it are clarified. The parameters include the bearing clearance and the deflection caused by the uneven bolt preload. A rotor-bearing model with bolted joints is established by using Lagrange equations. The bifurcation diagram is solved to explore the tendency of vibration of the system at different speeds by considering the Hertz contact force. Furthermore, the phase diagram, Poincaré map, time-domain steady-state response curve, and spectrum diagram are used to discuss the dynamic behaviors of the system specifically. The influence of the bearing clearance change and uneven bolt preload on the dynamic behaviors is investigated by using the bifurcation diagram. The result shows that the motion of the system is extremely complex, which includes chaotic motion. The Lyapunov exponent is then calculated to verify whether the system enters chaos. The correctness of the model is verified by comparing the result in this work with those in the literature. The model can clarify the dynamic behaviors of the system well and has high accuracy, which can provide the theoretical guidance for the design of rotor-bearing systems with bolted joints.
