Magnetic objective lenses, from the point of view of pole piece geometry, can he roughly classified into two types, viz., symmetrical and asymmetrical. In the case of the former, the optical properties have been calculated by several authors1-3) and the results would appear to suggest that, in order to reduce the spherical and chromatic aberration coefficients, Cs and Cc, it is necessary to decrease the half-width value of the axial field distribution and to increase the peak flux density. The expressions for either minimum Cs or minimum Cc were presented in the form of ‘universal’ curves by Mulvey and Wallington4).

Most deepwater tubulars experiencing high currents frequently require vortex-induced vibration (VIV) suppression to maintain an acceptable fatigue life. Helical strakes and fairings are the most popular VIV suppression devices in use today. Marine growth can significantly affect the VIV of a bare riser, often within just a few weeks or months after riser installation. Marine growth can have a strong influence on the performance of helical strakes and fairings on deepwater tubulars. This influence affects both suppression effectiveness as well as the drag forces on the helical strakes and fairings. Unfortunately, many VIV analyses and suppression designs fail to account for the effects of marine growth at all, even on a bare riser. This paper utilizes results from both high and low Reynolds number VIV test programs to provide some design considerations for managing marine growth for VIV suppression devices.

Results are presented from an investigation into the blade to blade and meridional flow perturbations arising in high deflection turbine cascades subjected to large sweep angles. Experimental work has confirmed previous analytical estimates of the effect of sweep and indicated that certain common design procedures for the calculation of blade to blade flows are seriously in error. The significance of the results with reference to practical design considerations is discussed.
