Abstract: The rotor-active magnetic bearing system subjected to a periodically time-varying stiffness having quadratic and cubic nonlinearities is studied and solved. The multiple time scale technique is ...

Abstract: The rheological behavior of oil-in-water emulsions has been studied as a function of oil concentration, shear strain rate, pressure and temperature. Results are discussed and correlated with ...

Abstract: An investigation into the passive vibration reduction of the nonlinear spring pendulum system, simulating the ship roll motion is presented. This leads to a four-degree-of-freedom (4-DOF) system ...

Abstract: In order to provide a rational background for the analysis of experimental observations of blast wave phenomena, the conservation equations governing their nonsteady flow field are formulated in ...
