Abstract: The following paper focuses on same-sign stiffness cross coupling from several viewpoints. First, the influence on rotordynamics is analyzed and discussed, followed by a discussion of how past ...

Abstract: Metal mesh is a commercially available material used in many applications including seals, heat shields, filters, gaskets, aircraft engine mounts, and vibration absorbers. This material has been ...

Abstract: Experiments and field applications have demonstrated that multiple-pocket gas damper seals effectively eliminate subsynchronous vibration and attenuate imbalance response at the critical speeds in ...

Abstract: Experiments are presented to identify the stiffness and damping force coefficients of a two-blade, teeth on stator labyrinth seal with diverging clearance and its modified version as a four-pocket ...
