Abstract: The impulsive behavior of the piston in the cylinder liner plays a key role in the noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) of internal combustion engines. There have been several studies on the identification and quantification ...

Abstract: Piston impacts against the cylinder liner are the most significant sources of mechanical noise in internal combustion (IC) engines. Traditionally, the severity of impacts is reduced through the modification of physical and ...

Abstract: Many industrial applications incorporate rotating shafts with fluctuating speeds around a required mean value. This often harmonic component of the shaft speed is generally detrimental, since it can excite components of ...
