Abstract: The problem of the free flexural (or bending) vibrations of a rectangular, composite base plate or panel stiffened by a bonded, noncentral stiffening plate strip is considered. The lower composite ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the problem of disassembling multiple selected components from an assembly, defined as selective disassembly, and presents algorithms for efficient disassembly analysis of ...

Abstract: In dynamic analysis of constrained multibody systems (MBS), the computer simulation problem essentially reduces to finding a numerical solution to higher-index differential-algebraic equations (DAE). ...

Abstract: Brush seals comprised of special-alloy wire bristles are currently being used in lieu of traditional labyrinth seals for turbomachinery applications. This advancement in seal technology utilizes ...

Abstract: This paper presents an enhanced tachometer model that takes into account the effect of electromagnetic coupling that can exist between the actuator and sensor in an integrated dc motor-tachometer ...
