This work aims to study the dynamic characteristics of an entire aero-engine casing by experiments using a new type rotating exciter. New vibration sensor layout rules are proposed according experimental results and transmission characteristics. The response is carried out, different measuring points also studied. finite element model engine casing’s structure established obtain natural frequen...

Abstract The stability limit of a tip-stalling axial compressor is sensitive to the magnitude near-casing blockage. In transonic compressors, presence passage shock could be major cause for Identification and elimination this blockage key improving compressor. article, using numerical simulation, within rotor, NASA Rotor 37, quantified parameter. For smooth casing, at conditions near stall maxi...

The paper presents a general algorithm for the specification of a screw machine geometry. The conjugancy condition was solved numerically which thereby enables a variety of primary arc curves to be introduced. In addition, an optional numerical derivation of primary arcs enables any analytical function and even discrete point functions to be used for the primary arc. The approach also simplifie...

This paper presents a case study on the mechanical design and fabrication of the Pico Radio Test Bed: a wireless networking node produced from off–the-shelf components for experimentation with applications, networking, media access layer design, and position locating algorithms. Particular focus is placed on the systematic design process and resolving coupling design constraints between the mec...

Previously published work on applied impact damping typically relates to SDOF models or simple MDOF models such as the classical cantilever beam. Structural models often require an extremely large number of DOF with mode shapes that are generally very complex. Dynamics simulation of these typically becomes both complicated and time consuming. The nonlinear behavior of impact dampers further com...

Progressive collapse is a chain reaction of failures propagating throughout a portion of the structure disproportionate to the original local failure occurring when a sudden loss of a critical load‐bearing element initiates a structural element failure, eventually resulting in partial or full collapse of the structure. Both General Services Administration (GSA) and United States Department of D...

A Blade Tip Timing (BTT) system enables the measurement of turbomachinery blade vibrations by means of contactless sensors mounted in the casing. In addition, the so-called Blade Tip Clearance (BTC) measurement system ensures the monitoring of the existing running gaps between the blade tip and the casing. This paper focuses on the results achieved so far using a novel magnetoresistive sensor f...
