The upgraded elastic surface algorithm (UESA) is a physical inverse design method that was recently developed for a compressor cascade with double-circular-arc blades. In this method, the blade walls are modeled as elastic Timoshenko beams that smoothly deform because of the difference between the target and current pressure distributions. Nevertheless, the UESA is completely unstable for a compressor cascade with an intense normal shock, which causes a divergence due to the high pressure difference near the shock and the displacement of shock during the geometry corrections. In this study, the UESA was stabilized for the inverse design of a compressor cascade with normal shock, with no geometrical filtration. In the new version of this method, a distribution for the elastic modulus along the Timoshenko beam was chosen to increase its stiffness near the normal shock and to control the high deformations and oscillations in this region. Furthermore, to prevent surface oscillations, nodes need to be constrained to move perpendicularly to the chord line. With these modifications, the instability and oscillation were removed through the shape modification process. Two design cases were examined to evaluate the method for a transonic cascade with normal shock. The method was also capable of finding a physical pressure distribution that was nearest to the target one.

AbstractIn this research, we study bienergy and biangles of moving particles lying on the surface of Lorentzian 3-space by using their energy and angle values. We present the geometrical characterization of bienergy of the particle in Darboux vector fields depending on surface. We also give the relationship between bienergy of the surface curve and bienergy of the elastic surface curve. We conclude the paper by providing bienergy-curve graphics for different cases.

We consider the problem of a hopping ball excited by a travelling harmonic wave on an elastic surface. The ball, considered as a particle, is assumed to interact with the surface through inelastic collisions. The surface motion due to the wave induces a horizontal drift in the ball. The problem is treated analytically under certain approximations. The phase space of the hopping motion is captured by constructing a phase-velocity return map. The fixed points of the return map and its compositions represent periodic hopping solutions. The linear stability of the obtained periodic solution is studied in detail. The minimum frequency for the onset of periodic hops, and the subsequent loss of stability at the bifurcation frequency, have been determined analytically. Interestingly, for small values of wave amplitude, the analytical solutions reveal striking similarities with the results of the classical bouncing ball problem.

Flow Compressor

In this study, a new inverse design method called Elastic Surface Algorithm (ESA) is developed and enhanced for axial-flow compressor blade design in subsonic and transonic flow regimes with separation. ESA is a physically based iterative inverse design method that uses a 2D flow analysis code to estimate the pressure distribution on the solid structure, i.e. airfoil, and a 2D solid beam finite element code to calculate the deflections due to the difference between the calculated and target pressure distributions. In order to enhance the ESA, the wall shear stress distribution, besides pressure distribution, is applied to deflect the shape of the airfoil. The enhanced method is validated through the inverse design of the rotor blade of the first stage of an axial-flow compressor in transonic viscous flow regime. In addition, some design examples are presented to prove the effectiveness and robustness of the method. The results of this study show that the enhanced Elastic Surface Algorithm is an effective inverse design method in flow regimes with separation and normal shock.
