Abstract: This paper reports a series of experiments concerning the buckling of a slender fluid layer in a state of longitudinal compression. The experiments consist of floating a layer of highly viscous ...

Abstract: A numerical study of plane longitudinal waves in a nonlinear viscoelastic material is presented. The constitutive relationship and the conservation equations, in Lagrangian form, are formulated ...

Abstract: The design procedure of optimal multi-edge BTA deep-hole machining tools with unsymmetrically located cutters and preliminary test evidence are presented. Based on a mathematical model of cutting ...

Abstract: Large improvements in specific fuel consumption and weight have been achieved during the development of the aircraft gas turbine engine in the past decade. The turbo-machinery requirements have ...
