Appropriate pretreatment of proteins and addition of xanthan gum (XG) has the potential to improve the stability of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. However, the factors that regulate the enhancement and the mechanism are still not clear, which restricts the realization of improving the emulsion stability by directional design of its structure. Therefore, the effects of whey protein micro-gel particles (WPMPs) and WPMPs-XG complexes on the stability of O/W emulsion were investigated in this article to provide theoretical support. WPMPs with different structures were prepared by pretreatment (controlled high-speed shear treatment of heat-set WPC gels) at pH 3.5–8.5. The impact of initial WPC structure and XG addition on Turbiscan Indexes, mean droplet size and the peroxide values of O/W emulsions was investigated. The results indicate that WPMPs and XG can respectively inhibit droplet coalescence and gravitational separation to improve the physical stability of WPC-stabilized O/W emulsions. The pretreatment significantly enhanced the oxidative stability of WPC-stabilized O/W emulsions. The addition of XG did not necessarily enhance the oxidative stability of O/W emulsions. Whether the oxidative stability of the O/W emulsion with XG is increased or decreased depends on the interface structure of the protein-XG complex. This study has significant implications for the development of novel structures containing lipid phases that are susceptible to oxidation.

The sequence domain impedance modeling of wind turbines (WTs) has been widely used in the stability analysis between WTs and weak grids with high line impedance. An aggregated impedance model of the wind farm is required in the system-level analysis. However, directly aggregating WT small-signal impedance models will lead to an inaccurate aggregated impedance model due to the mismatch of reference frame definitions among different WT subsystems, which may lead to inaccuracy in the stability analysis. In this paper, we analyze the impacts of the reference frame mismatch between a local small-signal impedance model and a global one on the accuracy of aggregated impedance and the accuracy of impedance-based stability analysis. The results revealed that the impact is related to the power distribution of the studied network. It was found that that the influence of mismatch on stability analysis became subtle when subsystems were balanced loaded. Considering that balanced loading is a common configuration of the practical application, direct impedance aggregation by local small-signal models can be applied due to its acceptable accuracy.

Purpose Several researchers have observed that to satisfy modern day’s need, it is essential to enhance the characteristics of journal bearing, which is used in numerous applications. Moreover, the use of Newtonian fluid as a lubricant is diminishing day by day, and the use of Non-Newtonian fluids is coming more into picture. Furthermore, if turbo-machinery applications are taken into account, then it can be seen that journal bearings are used for high speed applications as well. Thus, neglecting turbulent conditions may lead to erroneous results. Hence, this paper aims to present focuses on studying the stability characteristics of finite hydrodynamic journal bearing under turbulent coupled-stress lubrication. Design/methodology/approach First, the governing equation relevant to the problem is generated. Then, the dynamic analysis is carried out by linear perturbation technique, leading to three perturbed equations, which are again discretized by finite difference method. Finally, these discretized equations are solved with the help of Gauss-Seidel Iteration technique with successive over relaxation scheme. Consequently, the film response coefficients and the stability parameters are evaluated at different parametric conditions. Findings It has been concluded from the study that with increase in value of the coupled-stress parameter, the stability of the journal may increase. Whereas, with increase in Reynolds number, the stability of the journal decreases. On the other hand, stability increases with increasing values of slenderness ratio. Originality/value Researches have been performed to study the dynamic characteristics of journal bearing with non-Newtonian fluid as the lubricant. But in the class of non-Newtonian lubricants, the use of coupled-stress fluid has not yet been properly investigated. So, an attempt has been made to perform the stability analysis of bearings with coupled-stress fluid as the advanced lubricant.

Multibody dynamics analysis is advantageous in that it uses real dimensions and design parameters. In this study, the stability analysis of a railway vehicle based on multibody dynamics analysis is presented. The equations for the contact points and contact forces between the wheel and the rail are derived using a wheelset model. The dynamics equations of the wheelset are combined with the dynamics equations of the other parts of the railway vehicle, which are obtained by general multibody dynamics analysis. The equations of motion of the railway vehicle are linearized by using the perturbation method. The eigenvalues of these linear dynamics equations are calculated and the critical speed is found.

There are differences in each countrys design code for concrete elastic modulus that cause uncertainty in stability analysis of critical buckling load column. This paper investigates the impact of uncertainty on concrete elastic modulus for designing of critical buckling load of building column. The statistical data on materials and applied load being collected in Thailand are used together with an investigation on the uncertainty of the concrete elastic modulus in the design code from 8 countries. Finally the Monte Carlo simulation is used to find out the stability index in term of reliability index. The results show that the uncertainty of the concrete elastic modulus plays an important role in stability analysis and should be considered in the design.

Soft rock is frequently encountered in underground excavation process. It is difficult to excavate and support in soft rock mass which has low strength, large deformation and needs much time to be out of shape but little time to be self-stabilized. Based on a large underground power station, finite element model analysis was carried out to simulate the excavation process and the results of displacement, stress and plasticity area were compared between supported and unsupported conditions to evaluate the stability of the rock mass.

The exact solution for the symmetric two-impacts-per-cycle motion of the impact damper is derived analytically, and its asymptotically stable regions are determined. The stability analysis defines the zones where the modulus of all the eigenvalues of a certain matrix relating conditions after each of two consecutive impacts is less than unity.

A state-of-the-art CFD code (APNASA) was employed in a computationally based investigation of the impact of casing bleed and injection on the stability and performance of a moderate speed fan rotor wherein the stalling mass flow is controlled by tip flow field breakdown. The investigation was guided by observed trends in endwall flow characteristics (e.g., increasing endwall aerodynamic blockage) as stall is approached, and based on the hypothesis that application of bleed or injection can mitigate these trends. The “best” bleed and injection configurations were then combined to yield a self-recirculating casing treatment concept. The results of this investigation yielded: 1) identification of the fluid mechanisms which precipitate stall of tip critical blade rows, and 2) an approach to recirculated casing treatment which results in increased compressor stall range with minimal or no loss in efficiency. Subsequent application of this approach to a high speed transonic rotor successfully yielded significant improvements in stall range with no loss in compressor efficiency.

Multi-DOF model of double-disc rotor-bearing system taking crack and oil film support into account is established, and the continuation shooting method combined with Newmark is also applied to stability analysis of continuous system. This paper mainly studied the variation law of five parameters domain in crack depth and location, then a number of conclusions are found: first, it’s feasible to study the stability of nonlinear rotor-bearing system with crack faults using FEM; secondly, the crack depth and location has a certain impact on instability speed, but the impact is not great and owns its certain law. As the crack depth and location is getting close to the middle position of rotor, due to its impact on the oil film support, the instability speed of system increases. This method and results in this paper provides a theoretical reference for stability analysis and vibration control in more complex relevant rotor-bearing system with crack fault.

In order to suppress the impact of the friction torque and the magnetic levitation high-speed rotor system on the stability of gimbal servo system output angular rate, a self-adaption compensation method with no modeling for disturbance torque is presented. The interference suppressor calculates the disturbance compensation based on the torque motor current and the angular rate measured real-time by the current detection circuit and the frame angular detection circuit in the gimbal servo system, then feedbacks to the frame servo system controller to regulating the torque motor output current. 500Hz and 50Hz sinusoidal disturbance torque are introduced into the system to test the role of the interference suppressor. The result proves the interference suppressor has the same significant inhibition of effect for disturbance torque of different frequencies by MATLAB simulating framework output angular rate waveform.
