Abstract: Embedded sensitivity analysis has proven to be a useful tool in finding optimum positions of structure reinforcements. However, it was not clear how sensitivities obtained from the embedded ...

Abstract: The noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) performance of passenger vehicles strongly depends on the fluid-structure interaction between the air in the vehicle cavity and the sheet metal structure ...

Abstract: In the present paper, the dynamic response of a rotor supported by an active lubricated tilting-pad bearing is investigated in the frequency domain. The theoretical part of the investigation ...

Abstract: Aerostatic porous bearings are becoming important elements in precision machines due to their inherent characteristics. The mathematical modeling of such bearings depends on the pressure-flow ...
