Abstract: The development of thermal bows in rotors is frequently reported. The cause of the bows is an asymmetric temperature distribution as a result of uneven heating. The heat source can be a ...

Abstract: Sharp indentation problems are examined based on finite element methods (FEMs) and selfsimilarity considerations. The analysis concerns classical elastic–plastic materials with low, or no, strainhardening and especially ...

Abstract: An approximation of heat conduction dynamics in a rotating shaft is presented for use in the rotor dynamic analysis of multiple hydrodynamic bearings to predict alteration of vibrations due to ...

Abstract: A relation between journal vibration and asymmetric temperature in the lubricant-journal interface is derived. The bearing consists of five equally distributed tilting-pads. An arbitrary synchronous ...

Abstract: The effects of rotation on turbulent channel flow are discussed. In particular, the influence of the earth's rotation is analyzed, and some of the previous literature is reviewed. It is shown that Coriolis‐induced secondary ...

Abstract: A dynamic method is presented for the estimation of the in-plane elastic properties of structural panels modeled as thin orthotropic plates. The method utilizes the concept of modal analysis. Results from experimental modal ...

Abstract: Based on a state variable theory proposed by Onat some discriminating creep tests of stainless steel have been designed and carried out at elevated temperature conditions. Quantitative correlations ...

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to investigate the flow in a lubricant film on the surface roughness scale and to compare the numerical solutions obtained by two different solution approaches. ...

Abstract: Experimental and theoretical studies of elastohydrodynamically lubricated contacts normally assume static or quasi-static conditions. Nonsteady conditions are, however, very common, e.g., in machine ...
