The majority of research into full-sized helicopter overlapping propulsion systems involves co-axial setups (fully overlapped). Partially overlapping rotor setups (tandem, multirotor) have received less attention, and empirical data produced over the years is limited. The increase in demand for compact small unmanned aircraft has exposed the need for empirical investigations of overlapping prop...

The model for the stator-rotor interaction is discussed in the sections The stator-rotor interaction and The rotor switching dynamics of the main text. The model is based on the model of Oster and Blair and coworkers [1, 2], but extended to include the conformational transitions of the rotor protein complex. Here, we discuss aspects of the model that are not discussed in the main text. But, for...

In this paper, we investigate various kinds of extensions of twin-good rings. Moreover, we prove that every element of an abelian neat ring R is twin-good if and only if R has no factor ring isomorphic to‌ Z2  or Z3. The main result of [24] states some conditions that any right self-injective ring R is twin-good. We extend this result to any regular Baer ring R by proving that every elemen...

This work deals with the applications of extended Lagrangian-Hamiltonian mechanics on the asymmetric multi rotor system, where the symmetries are broken due to rotor mounted on the shaft with different masses and dimensions. The whole dynamics of asymmetries of multi-rotor system is investigated through extended Lagrangian formalism with a case study. In this work, an analytical model through e...

This paper is concerned with the statistical model development issues, necessary for rapid estimation of the rotor sizing for single main rotor helicopters at the preliminary design stage. However, Central Composite Design (CCD) method, simulation-based data collection, linear regression analysis, mathematical modelsdevelopmentand validations through the analysis of variance (ANOVA) were perfor...

Abstract: This paper presents a new method for observing the rotor temperature of high-power squirrel cage induction machines in measurable variables. The method is based on the fact that the rotor resistance depends on the actual rotor temperature. The main problem is to separate the changes in the rotor resistance due to temperature and skin effect. By comparing the input impedance with a kno...

H∞ controller for active magnetic bearings (AMBs) with flexible rotor system was designed in this paper. The motion equations of AMBs and flexible rotor system are built based on finite element methods (FEM). Weighting function matrices of H∞ controller for AMBs are studied for both the sensitivity and the complementary sensitivity of H∞ control theory. The simulation shows that the H∞ control ...

In this article, turbulent flow heat transfer in the air gap between rotor and stator of a generator under nonhomogeneous heat flux is studied experimentally. The rotor consists of four symmetrical triangular grooves. The stator surface is smooth and does not include any grooves. The relative heat flux between the rotor and the stator is 1 to 3. Temperature and heat flux are measured locally at...

Behavior genetic approaches are becoming increasingly popular in political science. Many studies, to date, used a classical twin design to explore both political participation and ideological self-placement in Western democracies but studies in different political contexts, such as post-communist countries, are scarce. This paper is the first to explore the heritability of ideology and politica...

There is unbalanced magnetic pull between the rotor and stator of the cage induction motor when the rotor is not concentric with the stator. These forces depend on the position and motion of the center point of the rotor. In this paper, the linearity of the forces in proportion to the rotor eccentricity is studied numerically using time-stepping finite element analysis. The results show that us...
