Axial Vibration Characteristics of a Metal Diaphragm Coupling

open access: closedApplied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
In this article, a metal diaphragm coupling is introduced. It is assembled by interference fit with the shafts. Based on two axial vibration styles, self-exited vibration and external exited vibration, of the coupling, physical model of the coupling is established. Stiffness and damping of the coupling are also solved and analyzed.

Diaphragm Couplings Versus Gear Couplings for Marine Applications

open access: closedMarine Technology and SNAME News, 1988
The gear coupling has been in existence for over 50 years. As advances in marine propulsion have occurred, so have advances in gear couplings. There are many variables in gear couplings that can affect their characteristics, including tooth design, materials, and lubrication methods. All couplings react on connected equipment.

Acetylcholine contracture and excitation-contraction coupling in denervated rat diaphragm muscle

open access: closedPfl�gers Archiv European Journal of Physiology, 1973
Acetylcholine (ACh) contracture of chronically denervated rat diaphragms were studied under different conditions which affect electromechanical coupling. 1. Acetylcholine induced a transient contracture while the membrane potential and the twitch amplitude remained depressed as long as the drug was present. 2.

Introduction of an Economical Diaphragm Coupling for Mid-Range Applications

open access: closedVolume 6: 8th International Power Transmission and Gearing Conference, 2000
Abstract This paper discusses the design, development, and testing of the NC diaphragm coupling. It also outlines the advantages of this coupling and its use in various applications. Non-lubricated couplings have become commonplace in the Power Transmission Industry.

Coupling of waveguide with resonator through diaphragm with slot with dielectric slab

open access: closed2017 XI International Conference on Antenna Theory and Techniques (ICATT), 2017
The problem of coupling of a semi-infinite rectangular waveguide with a resonator through the narrow slot in their common end wall is solved. The slot is completely or partially filled with a dissipative dielectric. The changes in the behavior of the reflection and absorption coefficients of the feeding power are studied as a function of the dielectric

Couples' acceptability of the SILCS diaphragm for microbicide delivery

Contraception, 2012
Disposable plastic applicators used in microbicide gel studies are expensive and have a negative environmental impact. The SILCS diaphragm is a barrier contraceptive that could offer a reusable delivery system.Thirty-six couples in this randomized, cross-over study evaluated single- and double-sided gel delivery from a SILCS diaphragm compared with gel

Linear and nonlinear frequency analyses for the rotating diaphragm of the coupling

Mechanics Based Design of Structures and Machines, 2020
The linear and nonlinear frequencies of the diaphragm are analyzed in this paper. Firstly, the nonlinear vibration equation is set up based on the d’Alembert principle considering the geometric non...

Nitric Oxide Modulates Excitation-Contraction Coupling in the Diaphragm

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 1998
We investigated the enzymatic source, cellular production, and functional importance of nitric oxide (NO) in rat diaphragm. Neuronal and endothelial isoforms of constituitive nitric oxide synthase (nc-NOS, ec-NOS) were identified by immunostaining. NOS activity measured in diaphragm homogenates averaged 5.1 pmol/min/mg.

Effect of Lung Volume Reduction Surgery on Neuromechanical Coupling of the Diaphragm

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1998
The mechanisms for symptomatic improvement following lung volume reduction surgery for emphysema are poorly understood. We hypothesized that enhanced neuromechanical coupling of the diaphragm is an important factor in this improvement. We studied seven patients with diffuse emphysema before and 3 mo after surgery.
