The aim of the work is to investigate power flows in the vibration reduction system equipped with a magnetorheological (MR) damper and energy regeneration. For this purpose, experiments were conducted in the test rig compound of the shaker and the vibration reduction system (electromagnetic harvester, MR damper, spring) which are attached to the sprung mass. The experimental data acquired under sine excitations enabled us to analyze instantaneous power fluxes, as well as a rate of inertial energy changes in the system.

External wrapping or retrofitting of polymer sheets are used in concrete and reinforced concrete structures is an increasing trend present. This paper evaluates the flexural behavior of beams retrofitted externally with GFRP laminates. Experimental plan deals with static experimental analysis. Reinforced beams of sizes 200×250×3500mm are casted for a grade of M35. Reinforced beams are externally retrofitted with E-glass fiber polymers. Beams are epoxy bonded to the GFRP laminates. Beams are tested under monotonic two point concentrated loading. Load – Deflection characteristics, crack pattern and failure characteristics of beam are analyzed.

The paper deals with the experimental analysis of the dynamic characteristics of a foil thrust bearing (FTB) designed following the specifications given by NASA in 2009. The start-up characteristics of the same foil bearing were investigated in a recently published paper. The test rig used for start-up measurements was adapted for dynamic measurements. The paper presents the test rig in detail as well as its identified dynamic models. Measurements of the dynamic characteristics of the bump foil structure were performed for static loads comprised between 30 N and 150 N while measurements for the FTB were performed at 35 krpm for 30 N, 60 N and 90 N. Excitation frequencies were comprised between 150 Hz and 750 Hz. Results showed that the dynamic stiffness of the FTB increase with excitation frequency while the equivalent damping decreases. Both stiffness and damping increase with the static load but are smaller at 35 krpm compared to 0 rpm.

The main limitation of bulk metallic glasses for their application as structural materials is the large brittleness under the external loading. We analyzed the failure characteristics of Co43Fe20Ta5.5B31.5(at.%) bulk metallic glass deformed in a compression at the room temperature and a low strain rate. Under loading the amorphous structure can store high elastic energy. During the failure this energy is released and the alloy breaks into small particles or powder exhibiting a fragmentation mode. The nanoscale fracture surface morphology respects the micromechanisms of failure of the amorphous structure. The fracture surface consists of a smooth mirror cleavage zone and a river pattern zone with the nanosized dimples arranged in lines respecting the periodic corrugation zones oriented perpendicular to the crack propagation direction.

Pumps used in professional appliances process a solution of water, soils residues and detergents. These affect vapor tension, viscosity and rheology of the solution, mainly due to the presence of surfactants and polymers. Only a few studies have been found on how these substances can influence pump performances. Therefore, an experimental analysis has been carried out with aqueous solutions of a detergent component, the Polyox WSR 301, in the concentration range of 100–7000 ppm, to evaluate their influence on pump performances and cavitation. Some properties of the solutions have been preliminary characterized with a rheometer. Then, each solution has been tested in a dedicated test rig, to compare the performance curves of a centrifugal pump used in professional warewashing machines with those obtained with pure water. A non-intrusive method, based on the investigation of high frequency vibrations and noise signals, has been developed to detect cavitation at its early stage of inception. It was observed that polymer mitigates cavitating pump vibrations, with a reduction of the acceleration to less than one g. The analysis has provided the data necessary for the successive development of a control strategy for pump operation in professional appliances.

Application background of gas-liquid separators is introduced. Centrifugal gas-liquid separators have many advantages, which are analyzed by comparing with normal gravity settling facilities. Experimental research was carried out. Test rig and facilities are described. Test prototypes are transparent plexi-glass separators. Through transparent prototypes, interior flow field can be observed clearly. Experimental phenomena of different structure plexi-glass prototypes are compared with and analyzed, some test photos were recorded. Test data of plexi-glass prototypes were obtained. Results show that the separating performance of the centrifugal gas-liquid separators is satisfactory. The structural scheme of high-efficient separator design is concluded.
