Sliding bearings–rotor systems are widely present in rotating machinery structures. The dynamic behavior triggered by friction and rub-impact faults is a key factor restricting the safe and stable operation of a rotor system. Existing studies mainly focus on analyzing dynamic characteristics but rarely explore the degree of friction and rub-impact in the system. This paper takes the sliding bearing–double-disk rotor system with friction and rub-impact as the research model, and defines the concept of the rubbing ratio. It analyzes the influence of relevant structural parameters on the system. The results reveal that the system exhibits rich nonlinear dynamics. Specifically, increasing either the rotor–stator clearance or the lubricant viscosity can drive the system into a broader regime of chaotic motion, while simultaneously reducing the extent of the rub-impact contact region. As the stator stiffness increases from 107 N/m to 9 × 107 N/m, the number of chaotic windows in the bifurcation diagram increases from one to three, while the maximum rubbing force rises by approximately 58% and the rubbing ratio increases from 50% to 56%. The phenomenon of coexisting attractors in the system is also revealed and analyzed. The above research results help to reveal the motion laws of this type of rotor system and have certain guiding significance for parameter matching and optimization design of the system dynamics.
