This paper shows the load comparisons between the numerical simulation and the full-scale load measurement data. First part of this paper includes the comparisons of statistic load in terms of maximum, mean, and minimum values for the selected normal operation cases. The blade root bending moments and tower top bending moments are compared. Second part of this paper introduces the dynamic respo...

The effects of compressor aerodynamic parameters, such as pitch-chord ratio, aspect ratio, and fillet, on the cascade performance have been studied in this paper. Slot configuration at the root of the blade has been proved to be an efficient passive control method for the corner separation control in compressor cascade. The combined effects of the pitch-chord ratio, aspect ratio, and blade fill...

The results of strength and gas dynamic improvement of turbocharger TK-32 axial turbine are presented. Turbocharger was manufactured by LLC “Penzadieselmash” (Penza, Russian) and is used as unit boost for diesel locomotive. The goal of this work was to ensure turbine work capacity when rotor speed is increased by 10% without efficiency reduction. The strain-stress state analysis indicated the r...

A wind turbine blade's structural dynamic response is simulated and analysed with the goal of characterizing the presence and severity of a shear web disbond. Computer models of a 5 MW offshore utility-scale wind turbine were created to develop effective algorithms for detecting such damage. Through data analysis and with the use of blade measurements, a shear web disbond was quantified accordi...

Based on the lotus root slicing machine of crank-slider style designed by the authors, the virtual prototype model of slicing machine has been established by the software of PRO/E, and the kinematics and dynamics performances of the slicing machine were studied by utilizing ADAMS. At the same time, analyses were made on the changes of the cutting velocity and acceleration of blade, the force co...

This case report describes the management of an oblique crown-root fracture of maxillary left lateral incisor. After removal of the fractured fragment, endodontic treatment, the remaining tooth was provisionally restored. The tooth was then orthodontically extruded by 3 mm to raise the defect supraginigivally. Periondonal fibres were cut with a surgical blade. A metallic screw type post was ins...

in this paper, the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon and the research history are described. then due to the complex and specific working conditions of a turbine blade, we have investigated the phenomenon on this subject. the fluid-structure interaction on a turbine blade model has been simulated by using structural and fluid flow section of ansys software. a model of turbine blade with ai...
