An analytical method to predict efficiency of aircraft gearboxes [PDF]
A spur gear efficiency prediction method previously developed by the authors was extended to include power loss of planetary gearsets. A friction coefficient model was developed for MIL-L-7808 oil based on disc machine data. This combined with the recent

Abstract Introduction Suicide is a significant public health concern and the second leading cause of death in adolescents and young adults. This study sought to better understand differences in demographic and clinical characteristics of young people who attempted suicide during three phases of this developmental period: late adolescence (14–17 years),

Integrated CFD-FEM approach for external gear pump vibroacoustic field prediction
In this work, a three-dimensional fluid-structural and vibro-acoustics coupled model of a gear pump is presented. Gear pumps represent the majority of the positive displacement machines used for flow generation in fluid power systems.

ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

Rotating and positive-displacement pumps for low-thrust rocket engines. Volume 1: Pump Evaluation and design [PDF]
Rotating and positive displacement pumps of various types were studied for pumping liquid fluorine for low-thrust, high-performance rocket engines. Included in the analysis were: centrifugal, pitot, Barske, Tesla, drag, gear, vane, axial piston, radial ...

ABSTRACT Labor exploitation within agri‐food supply chains poses significant ethical and managerial challenges, particularly in Mediterranean contexts where irregular employment practices persist. This study investigates the case of NoCap, a third‐party ethical certification initiative operating in Italy that integrates social responsibility into ...
