This paper analyzes the nonlinear phenomenon of rotating stall via the methods of projection [Elementary Stability and Bifurcation Theory, G. Iooss and D. D. Joseph, Springer-Verlag, 1980] and Lyapunov [J.-H. Fu, Math. Control Signal Systems, 7, 255278, 1994]. A compressor model of Moore and Greitzer is adopted in which rotating stall dynamics are associated with Hopf bifurcations. Local stabil...

We investigate the issue of stalling in the LogP model. In particular, we introduce a novel quantitative characterization of stalling, referred to as δ-stalling, which intuitively captures the realistic assumption that once the network’s capacity constraint is violated, it takes some time (at most δ) for this information to propagate to the processors involved. We prove a lower bound that shows...

DNA inverted repeats (IRs) are hotspots of genomic instability in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. This feature is commonly attributed to their ability to fold into hairpin- or cruciform-like DNA structures interfering with DNA replication and other genetic processes. However, direct evidence that IRs are replication stall sites in vivo is currently lacking. Here, we show by 2D electrophoretic ...

We investigate the issue of stalling in the LogP model. In particular, we introduce a novel quantitative characterization of stalling, referred to as -stalling, which intuitively captures the realistic assumption that once the network’s capacity constraint is violated, it takes some time (at most ) for this information to propagate to the processors involved. We prove a lower bound that shows t...

A plain journal bearing is spontaneously unstable above a critical speed and loses much of its load carrying capacity when subjected to a load rotating at about half the speed of the shaft. The almost axially symmetric flow in a compressor can break down at low flow into a rotating pattern of stall cells but only the special case of a single propagating stall cell gives rise to a mechanical cou...

This paper is devoted to solve the problem of stall flutter suppression for an absolutely divergent blade of small scale wind turbine. The blade is specially designed with absolutely divergent motions for the purpose of determining the most effective methods of active control for stall flutter suppression. A 2-DOF blade section is considered, with a simplified stall nonlinear aerodynamic model ...
