Brushless drives are important, but are often thought to be difficult to treat quantitatively at the undergraduate level. The Blondel circle diagram is shown to be ideal for illuminating the steady-state behaviour and limitations of small brushless system, at a level suitable for undergraduate courses.

In this paper we consider the general birth-and-death queueing model of Natvig (1975). Define the input and output processes by the steady-state behaviour of respectively successive input and output intervals. Ignoring balking customers, two cases are considered. In the first case we treat a lost customer neither as an input nor as an output, then secondly as both. For both cases we show the input and output processes to be reverse processes. One mistake and two erroneous comments in Natvig (1975) are also corrected.

A theoretical model of a four-pad bearing profile with unique adjustable or controllable features is simulated in the present study by considering load directed between the pads. Radial and tilt adjustable mechanism of the four bearing pads can effectively control and modify the rotor operating behaviour. Inward and outward motions of the bearing pads result in the generation of narrow and broader convergent regions, which directly influences the fluid film pressures. In the theoretical analysis, load-between-pad (LBP) orientations and pad adjustment configurations are taken account of by employing a modified film thickness equation. The effect of load position in influencing the steady state behaviour of the four-pad adjustable bearing under varied pad displaced conditions is analysed in this study. The outcome of the analysis highlighted the effectiveness of four-pad adjustable bearing in improving the steady state performance by operating under negative adjustment conditions and with load acting on the bearing pads.

In this paper the steady-state behaviour of multistate monotone systems of multistate components is considered by applying the theory for stationary and synchronous processes with an embedded point process. After reviewing some general results on stationary availability, stationary interval availability and stationary mean interval performance probabilities, we concentrate on systems with independently working and separately maintained components. For this case an explicit formula is given for the mean time which the system in steady state sojourns in states not below a fixed critical level.

So-called steady state behaviour in laboratory scale self-heating of solid substrates such as carbons and cellulosics has rarely if ever been truly steady, but has displayed a maximum in the temperature history. This is due to volatiles and/or to porosity. In this paper it is argued that the self-heating of a bituminous coal will, at the temperatures concerned, be free from these ef fects and will therefore display genuinely steady behaviour. This assertion is tested by experimental work on a Scottish bituminous coal, in which sustained steady behaviour is indeed observed, with a heat release rate calculated to be ~ 3 kW m -3.
