    Abstract: A squeeze film damper includes a static member and a whirling member positioned adjacent to the static member. A gap is formed between the static member and the whirling member. A pressurized oil reservoir is formed in the gap between the static member and the whirling member. A first low pressure oil reservoir is formed in a first cavity in the whirling member, wherein the first low pressure oil reservoir is positioned on a first end of the pressurized oil reservoir. A second low pressure oil reservoir is formed in a second cavity in the whirling member, wherein the second low pressure oil reservoir is positioned on a second end of the pressurized oil reservoir. A first primary seal is positioned between the first end of the pressurized oil reservoir and the first low pressure oil reservoir, and a second primary seal is positioned between the second end of the pressurized oil reservoir and the second low pressure oil reservoir.
