This article deals with the determination of temperature distribution, displacement and thermal stresses of a rectangular plate having nonhomogeneous material properties with internal heat generation. The plate is subjected to sectional heating. All the material properties except Poisson’s ratio and density are assumed to be given by a simple power law along x direction. Solution of the two-dim...

This paper presents the theoretical and experimental investigations on the transient stress of the suspension spring in a reciprocating hermetic refrigeration compressor. The torques acting to the compressor body of a multi-cylinder compressor and the transient vibration of the compressor body are analyzed over a wide range of start and stop operations. The dynamic stresses of the suspension sp...

The torsional stress is caused by interaction between electrical transient air-gap torque by electrical disturbances and mechanical torque of turbine-generator shaft system. If a transient shaft torque exceeds a certain threshold, the loss of fatigue life occurs and in the end it is possible to happen shaft failure. This paper discusses that which factors can damage to turbine-generator shaft a...

We describe a patient who developed severe ventricular dysfunction and cardiogenic shock after intense emotional stress. Her subsequent course was favorable, with complete recovery of left ventricular systolic function. The coronary arteries were normal and no specific etiologic agent was demonstrated. Her clinical picture was compatible with transient left ventricular apical ballooning. [I123]...
