Design optimisation of separate-jet exhausts for the next generation of civil aero-engines [PDF]

open access: yesThe Aeronautical Journal, 2018
ABSTRACTThe next generation of civil large aero-engines will employ greater bypass ratios compared with contemporary architectures. This results in higher exchange rates between exhaust performance and specific fuel consumption (SFC). Concurrently, the aerodynamic design of the exhaust is expected to play a key role in the success of future turbofans ...

Energy Dissipation in Nonlinearly Elastic Auxetic and Non‐Auxetic Mechanical Metamaterials with Friction and Material Damping

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a hyperelastic mechanical metamaterial for elastic energy dissipation. Energy is dissipated within its unit cells by friction assisted by material damping. Frictional contact is enhanced when using auxetic unit cells. The load–displacement plot for one compression cycle shows a pronounced hysteresis loop, indicating that a large ...
