Abstract: A method is given for analyzing the vibrations of turbine blades subjected to flows at high negative incidence angles. The conditions for the existence of self-excited vibrations and the stability ...

Abstract: The method of matched asymptotic expansions is employed to solve the singular perturbation problem of the vibrations of a rotating beam of small flexural rigidity with concentrated end masses. ...

Abstract: A maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method is developed to predict flow rates or pressure gradients in hydraulic pipe networks without sufficient information to give a closed-form (deterministic) solution. This methodology substantially ...

Abstract: A maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method is developed to predict mean external and internal flow rates and mean pressure gradients (potential differences) in hydraulic pipe networks, without or with sufficient constraints to ...
