Abstract: A theoretical and experimental approach was used to investigate the motion and effectiveness of a Self-Compensating Dynamic Balancer (SCDB). This is a device intended to minimize the effects of ...

Abstract: Nondimensional frequency parameters for predicting the resonant frequencies of annular plates with fixed-free boundary conditions as the plate inner to outer radius ratio approaches unity have ...

Abstract: An investigation has been conducted of the velocity coupling phenomenon reported in acoustically unstable solid propellant rocket motors. An innovative simulation facility has been built using ...
