Abstract: The hydrodynamic mass approach to the solution of dynamic problems in coupled fluid-cylindrical shells is reviewed; simplified equations for computing the hydrodynamic masses and for the subsequent ...

Abstract: An expression to calculate the buffeting response of a multispan tube bundle with nonconstant linear mass density is derived by generalizing Powell’s joint acceptance concept. Application of the ...

Abstract: An integral transform solution is developed to reduce the problem of determining the stress-intensity factor of a narrow three-dimensional rectangular crack to the solution of a Fredholm integral ...

Abstract: The generalized hydrodynamic mass for the free vibration of two coaxial cylindrical shells coupled by a narrow fluid gap is derived by following a procedure similar to that mentioned in [1]; ...

Abstract: This study considers the influence of solder joint voiding and seating plane stability on the lead standoffs of surface mount technology (SMT) solder joints. A model is presented for approximating ...

Abstract: The dynamics of a system of two fluid-elastically coupled coaxial cylindrical shells is studied theoretically. The general equations of motion for free and forced-damped vibration are derived in ...

Abstract: This paper describes a theoretical analysis of the dynamic behavior of multirecess externally pressurized oil journal bearings for a nonrotating journal subjected to plane harmonic vibrations. The ...

Abstract: A considerable amount of work was carried out in the mid-1980s to develop heavy-duty diesel engines that could meet limits on particulate emissions. These limits, although high by today’s ...
