Today’s design of machine rotor requires the rotor to operate at a high rotational speed to improve the efficiency of the machine. However, the existence of disturbances such as periodic axial load may cause parametric resonance to the rotor system in addition to the common force resonance. Previous studies on this parametric resonance of shaft typically included the element of translational and rotary inertia, gyroscopic moments and bending and shear deformation but surprisingly neglected the effect of the axial torque. This paper investigated the parametric instability behaviour of the shaft rotating at high speed while considering the torsional effect of the shaft. Based on the finite element method, a shaft model that includes torsional deformation as one of its degree of freedom was established. The Mathieu-Hill equation was derived, and then the Bolotin’s method was used to solve the equation by establishing the parametric instability chart. Two types of the rotary system were studied: a shaft with different boundary conditions and shaft with different bearing types. The results were initially validated with past findings. Following that the results were compared to the results correspond to the Timoshenko’s beam formulation that omits the torsional degree of freedom. The effect of axial torsional deformation was found to be very significant especially at high speed. The developed model in this study shows that at the shaft speed of 40000 rpm, the effect of torsional deformation has given the difference of more than 100% in the frequency ratios correspond to the 4DOF and 5DOF models for the case of fix-free boundary condition.

The present investigation deals with the assessment of parametric resonance behavior of new aircraft material, i.e., woven fiber metal laminated (FML) plates subjected to in-plane static and harmonic loading using finite element (FE) technique and Bolotin’s method. In this analysis, a four-node isoparametric element with five degrees of freedom per node is adopted. Based on the first-order Reissner–Mindlin theory, the parametric instability of FML plate subjected to in-plane harmonic loading is examined. A MATLAB code is developed for the parametric study on the dynamic stability of FML plates. The reliability of present formulation is checked by comparing numerical results obtained from present FE analysis with the published researches in the field. The influences of several factors, viz. static load factor, aspect ratio, length-to-thickness ratio, number of layers, ply orientation and boundary conditions on the dynamic instability regions are discussed. Significant variations of these factors on dynamic instability zones of FML plates are observed. The instability zones can be used as guidelines for the prediction of the dynamic behavior of FML plates.

Efficiency improvement that can be provided by the high-speed rotating equipment becomes a concern for designers nowadays. Since the high-speed rotating machinery was capable of rotating at very near to critical speed, the accurate estimation of critical speed needs to be considered. This paper investigated the effect of torsional element towards critical speed of high-speed rotating shaft system for pinned-pinned (P-P), clamped-free (C-F) and clamped-free (C-F) boundaries condition. The Nelson’s finite element model that considers the torsional effect was developed for formulating the finite element (FE) model. This FE model was used to derive Mathieu-Hill’s equation and then solved by applying the Bolotin’s theory. From the solution, the Campbell’s diagram of the high-speed shaft was plotted. It was found that torsional motion has significant effect on the critical speed for different boundary conditions. The difference between critical speed of 4DOF and 5DOF models can be as high as 6.91 %.

This paper presents an integrated study of a rotor/bearing structure, with specific interests toward high-speed spindle systems under rotating end loads. Considering the coupling between the rotating shaft and the nonlinear bearings, an iterative method is developed to derive the system equilibrium configuration for given operating conditions. With moving end loads, structural instability caused by high rotational speed is analyzed. The critical speeds and unstable speed regions are discussed. Machining chatter instability lobes are also derived using the spindle model. It is shown that significant errors will occur in predicting spindle characteristics and stability if the speed and load effects on the shaft/bearing dynamics are neglected.

Parametric instability of a shaft occurs within a certain range of speed when the shaft parameters such as stiffness and mass are disturbed periodically. At high speed a shaft may carry high torque and as such the effect of torsion on the parametric instability need to be considered. The use of the Timoshenko’s beam theory in the parametric instability formulation of shaft in the past has seen this torsional effect being neglected. In this paper the torsional degree of freedom is added to the formulation for the parametric instability of shaft that is based on the mentioned Timoshenko’s theory. The focus is on the effect of slenderness ratio of shaft on the occurrence of parametric instability on the shaft. The finite element method is used to produce the Mathieu-Hill equation and upon applying the Bolotin’s method the parametric insta-bility equations of shaft can be determined. The formulation and its corresponding MATLAB source codes were successfully validated based on past results. It was found that the increase in the slenderness ratio has shifted the instability chart to the right by 20 %. Furthermore the additional torsional degree of freedom has significantly changed the instability chart of the shaft at high speed.

Railway noise is calculated to predict the impact of new or reconstructed railway tracks on nearby residential areas. The results are used to prepare adequate counter- measures, and the calculation results are directly related to the cost of the action plans. The calculated values were used to produce noise maps for each area of inter- est. The Schall 03 2012 is one of the most frequently used methods for the production of noise maps. The latest version was released in 2012 and uses various input para- meters associated with the latest rail vehicles and track systems in Germany. This version has not been sufficiently used in South Korea, and there is a lack of standard guidelines and a precise manual for Korean railway systems. Thus, it is not clear what input parameters will match specific local cases. This study investigates the modeling procedure for Korean railway systems and the differences between calcu- lated railway sound levels and measured values obtained using the Schall 03 2012 model. Depending on the location of sound receivers, the difference between the cal- culated and measured values was within approximately 4 dB for various train types. In the case of high-speed trains, the value was approximately 7 dB. A noise-reducing measure was also modeled. The noise reduction effect of a low-height noise barrier system was predicted and evaluated for operating railway sites within the frame- work of a national research project in Korea. The comparison of calculated and measured values showed differences within 2.5 dB.

A study conducted on the high-speed diesel engine (bore/stroke: 79.5/95.5 mm; 66 kW) running with microalgae oil (MAO100) and diesel fuel (D100) showed that, based on Wibe parameters (m and φz), the difference in numerical values of combustion characteristics was ~10% and, in turn, resulted in close energy efficiency indicators (ηi) for both fuels and the possibility to enhance the NOx-smoke opacity trade-off. A comparative analysis by mathematical modeling of energy and traction characteristics for the universal multi-purpose diesel engine CAT 3512B HB-SC (1200 kW, 1800 min−1) confirmed the earlier assumption: at the regimes of external speed characteristics, the difference in Pme and ηi for MAO100 and D100 did not exceeded 0.7–2.0% and 2–4%, respectively. With the refinement and development of the interim concept, the model led to the prognostic evaluation of the suitability of MAO100 as fuel for the FPT Industrial Cursor 13 engine (353 kW, 6-cylinders, common-rail) family. For the selected value of the indicated efficiency ηi = 0.48–0.49, two different combinations of φz and m parameters (φz = 60–70 degCA, m = 0.5 and φz = 60 degCA, m = 1) may be practically realized to achieve the desirable level of maximum combustion pressure Pmax = 130–150 bar (at α~2.0). When switching from diesel to MAO100, it is expected that the ηi will drop by 2–3%, however, an existing reserve in Pmax that comprises 5–7% will open up room for further optimization of energy efficiency and emission indicators.

We report an experiment in which participants ( N = 368) were asked to differentiate between major and minor thirds. These intervals could either be formed by diatonic tones from the C major scale (tonal condition) or by a subset of tones from the chromatic scale (atonal condition). We hypothesized that in the tonal condition intervals would be perceived as a function of scale step distances, which we defined as the number of diatonic leaps between two notes of a given music scale. In the atonal condition, we hypothesized that intervals would be perceived as a function of cents. If our hypotheses were supported, we should verify a less accurate performance in the tonal condition, where scale step distances are the same between major and minor thirds. The data corroborated our hypotheses, and we suggest that acoustic measurements of intervallic distances (i.e., frequency ratios and cents) are not optimal when it comes to describing the perceptual quality of intervals in a tonal context. Finally, our research points to the possibility that, in comparison with previous models, scale steps and cents might better capture the notion of global versus local instances of auditory processing.

Roller-mark is a common problem in offset printing and its solution method is important for printing. A new detecting method of texture analysis was given in this paper. In this study, printing image was acquired with high-speed CCD. Compared the difference between printing image and standard image, a defective image was obtained. Then the reason of roller-marks was given by the texture recognition of defect image. Finally, experiments were taken to prove the feasibility and effectiveness of this new method for the roller-marks diagnosis in the offset printing machine.
