A Simplified Procedure for Performance-Based Design

Development of a Design Procedure for Aeronautical Structures Based on Reliability

In this paper, an approach to aeronautical structural design based on reliability analysis is presented. In this way, the concept of level of safety is discussed and methods of its calculation using statistical data are described. Based on the concept of level of safety, a design procedure is proposed. In order to validate this design procedure, two design cases are studied. In the first case s...

A Scale-up Design Procedure for Rotating Biological Contactors

A scale-up design procedure, based on a new physical mass transfer (PMT) model, whichdescribes the performance, for aerobic rotating biological contactors (RBC’s) is developed. This scale-up procedure can be used to determine the disc surface area needed to prevent an oxygen limitation or to obtain a specific degree of treatment. In contrast to the empirical, and most previous RBC performance m...

A Simplified Procedure for Designing Hermetic Compressors

Research on the various aspects of hermetic compressor design and development has been going on for a long period of time. As old questions get answered, new ones keep coming up. So much work has been done that a beginner in the compressor design field could easily get confused, and might not even know where to start. The purpose of this paper is to present a consolidated and simplified design ...
