A Study on Run-Out Characteristics of Externally Pressurized Gas Journal Bearing : Rotor Run-Out Characteristics

A study on the characteristics of externally pressurized air bearings

In this study the direct numerical method is applied to solve the perturbed Reynolds" equation. To solve it the perturbed dimensionless mass f low rate is used as the boundary condition under the inherently compensated restrictor. The dynamic characteristics of a rotor supported in the externally pressurized air bearings, such as stiffness and damping coefficients, are analyzed, and as a result...

Tool Run-Out Measurement in Micro Milling

The interest in micro manufacturing processes is increasing because of the need for components characterized by small dimensions and micro features. As a result, researchers are studying the limitations and advantages of these processes. This paper deals with tool run-out measurement in micro milling. Among the effects of the scale reduction from macro to micro, tool run-out plays an important ...

Initiation of Run-Out Flows on Venus by Oblique Impacts

A hypervelocity oblique impact results in a downrange-moving vapor cloud, a significant fraction of which is derived from the projectile. Since the vapor cloud expands to great extent and becomes very tenuous quickly on a planet with a thin or no atmosphere, it does not leave a well-defined geologic expression. The thick atmosphere of Venus, however, is sufficient to contain such a rapidly expa...

Run-out Effects of Debris Flows Based on Numerical Simulation

Debris flows are a common natural disaster in mountainous areas and often cause severe casualties and property loss. Debris-flow run-out effects analysis can provide an idea of the spatial risks posed to the downstream area of a debris flow, which is extremely important for local populations’ lives, disaster mitigation and planning the layout of economic construction. The objective of this stud...
