To address the anomalous vibrations potentially caused by improper bearing installation in rotating machinery, the effects of bearings’ coupling misalignment on the contact forces and vibration responses of ball bearings were analyzed. A mechanical model for deep groove ball bearings was developed, considering the axial, parallel, and angular misalignments in the outer ring. Sensitivities of the raceway contact forces and rotor vibration responses to these three types of misalignments were evaluated through the orthogonal experimental design. The results showed that, when all the three misalignments coexist, parallel misalignment exhibits the highest sensitivity to both contact forces and vibration responses, while axial misalignment demonstrates the lowest sensitivity.
