Growth of Subsurface Fatigue Fractures in Large‐Size Bevel Gears
Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 640-652, February 2026.ABSTRACT Large‐size bevel gears are commonly used in marine industry for the applications of propulsion, such as azimuth thrusters. The gears are typically designed for specific use, as they are directly transferring power from one component to another.

Fundamental study of flow field generated by rotorcraft blades using wide-field shadowgraph [PDF]
The vortex trajectory and vortex wake generated by helicopter rotors are visualized using a wide-field shadowgraph technique. Use of a retro-reflective Scotchlite screen makes it possible to investigate the flow field generated by full-scale rotors.
