RISUncertainty in Ranking the Hottest Years of U.S. Surface Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: anking years based on statistical estimates of regional and temporal averages is subject to uncertainty. This uncertainty can in fact be quite substantial and can be described by the rank distribution of an ensemble of ...
Discussion: “Optimization of a Two Degree of Freedom System Acting as a Dynamic Vibration Absorber†(Febbo, M., and Vera, S. A., 2008, ASME J. Vib. Acoust., 130, p. 011013)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We present this discussion on “Optimization of a Two Degree of Freedom System Acting as a Dynamic Vibration Absorber,†by M. Febbo and S. A. Vera, published in the Feb. 2008 issue of the ASME Journal of Vibration and ...
Heat Conduction and Thermo-Elastic Stress Field Disturbed by a Thermal-Medium Crack Propagating in Orthotropic Materials Characterized by Real or Complex Eigenvalues
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A dynamic, partially permeable crack model for orthotropic materials is established with the crack full of thermal medium. Besides external thermal and elastic loadings, the heat flux generated by the crack interior full ...
Design Optimization of Gas Foil Thrust Bearings for Maximum Load Capacity1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of the present study is to develop a design guideline to improve the load capacity of gas foil thrust bearings (GFTBs). The Reynolds equation for an isothermal isoviscous ideal gas calculates the gas film pressure. ...
Feasibility Study of an Oil Free Turbocharger Supported on Gas Foil Bearings Via On Road Tests of a Two Liter Class Diesel Vehicle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the feasibility study of an oilfree turbocharger (TC) supported on gas foil bearings (GFBs) via onroad tests of a 2liter class diesel vehicle. The oilfree TC is constructed using a hollow rotor with a ...
Dynamic Relaxation Using Continuous Kinetic Damping—Part I: Basic Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic relaxation (DR) is the most widely used approach for static equilibrium analyses. Specifically, DR compels dynamic systems to converge to a static equilibrium through the addition of fictitious damping. DR methods ...
Design and Testing of a Crashworthy Landing Gear
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The development of a crashworthy landing gear is presented based on the civil regulations and the military specifications. For this, two representative crashworthy requirements are applied to helicopter landing gear design: ...
Effects of Mechanical Preloads on the Rotordynamic Performance of a Rotor Supported on Three Pad Gas Foil Journal Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the rotordynamic performance measurements and model predictions of a rotor supported on threepad gas foil journal bearings (GFJBs) with various mechanical preloads. The rotor with its length of 240 mm, ...
Finite Element Analysis for Shock Resistance Evaluation of Cushion Packaged Multifunction Printer Considering Internal Modules
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Failures in IT electronics are often caused by falling or external shocks during transportation. These failures cause customers to mistrust the reliability of the products. Many manufacturers of IT electronics have not ...
