Oil journal bearings are one of the most common parts of high load carrying rotating machine. Stability of these bearings can be affected by various stimulus such as changes in loading and lubrication conditions. Therefore, identification of the dynamic response of journal bearings can improve the control and fault detection process of rotor-bearings systems and prevent them from placing in critical operation condition. Since past, the mass unbalance of rotor is proposed as an effective factor on the dynamic behavior and long life of bearings. For this reason, in this research the effects of this parameter on the stability of hydrodynamic two lobe noncircular journal bearing with micropolar lubricant is investigated based on the nonlinear dynamic model. To achieve this goal, the governing Reynolds equation is modified with respect to micropolar fluid theory and the equations of rotor motion are derived considering the mass unbalance parameter. The static and dynamic pressure distributions of the lubricant film and the components of displacement, velocity and acceleration of the rotor are obtained by simultaneous solution of the Reynolds equation and the equations of rotor motion. Investigation of results in terms of dynamic trajectory, power spectrum, bifurcation diagram and Poincare map show that the dynamic behavior of two lobe bearings appears in different manner with variation of mass unbalance of rotor. The response of analyzed dynamic system include converge oscillations to the equilibrium point, periodic, KT periodic and quasi periodic behavior and also divergent disturbances which leads to collision between the rotor and bearing.
