Abstract: Although much work has been done on the efficiency of epicyclic gearing, emphasis has usually been given to the planetary that has only one degree of freedom. In this paper, a thorough study ...

Abstract: Comprehensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are developed and analyzed in this paper to study the three-dimensional flow through simulated nuclear fuel bundles with angular misalignments ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method for predicting regenerative chatter onset conditions for uniform and stepped workpieces. The lateral deflections of flexible workpieces are modeled using the Timoshenko ...

Abstract: This paper presents a methodology for accurate free vibration analysis of planar flexible mechanisms. Each flexible body is considered as a beam and modelled using higher-order beam elements for ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional oscillatory airflows induced by a rotating grass-cutting blade in a cylindrical chamber are studied experimentally and numerically in this paper. Experimental pressure results are ...

Abstract: Large eddy simulation (LES) is employed in this paper to model the axial flow along a circular array of rods with a focus on anisotropic large-scale turbulence. The circular array consists ...

Abstract: Laminar mixed convection heat transfer across five in-line microchipsized heaters, surface mounted on printed circuit board (PCB), was investigated by the weighted residual finite element method. ...

Abstract: Friction dampers are widely used to improve the performance of rotating blades. This paper is concerned with the steady state response and stability analysis of rotating composite plates in the ...

Abstract: The paper considers practical aspects of mathematical modeling in predictions of the level of near-field pressure pulsations of a near-future prototype supersonic business aircraft. A numerical modeling technique based on ...

Abstract: To investigate the frequency and amplitude effects on flutter derivatives, as well as the nonlinear characteristics of the aerodynamic forces on bridge sections, a vibration excitation system was designed and built for ...
