A primary goal of NVH engineering is the identification and control of noise and vibration sources. In recent years the torsional vibration behaviour of engine and powertrain components has gained in significance. This paper discusses several aspects of measuring and analysing torsional vibration and related data. Several torsional vibration measurement techniques are presented, together with r...

In this work the invariant imbedding method has been used to develop an algorithm to study the torsional vibration of non-uniform systems. The algorithm is based on the propagation, reflection, and transmission of waves in a stepped waveguide and is part of a procedure to transform two-point boundary value problems in initial value problems. Based on this approach, a continuous model has been d...

A series of wind tunnel model tests and theoretical analyses were conducted to investigate torsion excitation, response and vibration suppression of wind-excited buildings. An aeroelastic model for pure torsion vibration was developed and the aeroelastic test results were compared with those obtained by other Wind tunnel test techniques. The comparison and practice indicated that this type of m...

Highly anisotropic microtubules (MTs) immersed in cytosol are a central part of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells. The dynamic behaviors of an MT-cytosol system are of major interest in biomechanics community. Such a solid-fluid system is characterized by a Reynolds number of the order 10(-3) and a slip ionic layer formed at the MT-cytosol interface. In view of these unique features, an orth...

This study investigates dynamic & static behaviour of automotive engine crankshaft with the specific conditions. This work investigates the coupled modes, including, couple torsional flexural vibration and coupled longitudinal flexural vibration for non rotating engine crankshaft. The finite element models of this generally used are in two categories beam elements and solid elements and in this...

The oil and gas industry has a growing demand for electrically driven trains operated at variable speeds. Variable frequency electrical drives enable increased operational flexibility and energy efficiency. This is of great importance in applications requiring high power, such as gas compression. Load commutated inverters (LCIs) are one of the most widespread technologies for driving large gas ...

This paper proposes an ultrasonic scalpel based on the longitudinal-torsional vibration mode to enhance hemostatic ability. The concentrator of proposed has been specially designed with spiral grooves realize this mode. change working enlarged vertical motion component distal blade efficiently radiate energy into dissected tissues, supporting that blood vessel can receive sufficient be sealed. ...
