Edge Buckling of Imperfectly Guided Webs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Web handling is germane to a diverse set of industries, including paper, polymer, textile, and sheet metal processing. Angular misalignment of the guides used to position a web in its transport ...
On the Vibration of Coupled Traveling String and Air Bearing Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Air bearings are used to position and guide such axially-moving materials as high speed magnetic tapes, paper sheets, and webs. In each case, vibration of the moving medium couples with the ...
Equilibrium Analysis of Finite Width Tension Dominated Foil Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A foil bearing is formed when a flexible material passes over a stationary rigid surface and entrains a thin layer of air that lubricates the relative motion. Some applications include the ...
