Effect of Tapered Interference Fit between Impeller and Shaft in Turbo Machines
Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2018 In Turbo machines, there are many components which are provided with interference to transmit torque and to maintain contact between them. There are transient scenarios where impeller and shaft lose interference and limits the speed of the impeller.

Compatibility, Development, and Estimation of Taper and Volume Equation Systems
Forestry sciences, 2018 The meaning of compatibility in systems of taper and volume equations has been extended. It is desirable and possible to develop completely compatible taper and volume equation systems that have algebraic compatibility and numeric consistency among all ...

Fiber taper characterization by optical backscattering reflectometry.
Optics Express, 2017 Fiber tapers provide a way to rapidly measure the spectra of many types of optical microcavities. Proper fabrication of the taper ensures that its width varies sufficiently slowly (adiabatically) along the length of the taper so as to maintain single ...

Spatial beam self-cleaning and supercontinuum generation with Yb-doped multimode graded-index fiber taper based on accelerating self-imaging and dissipative landscape [PDF]
, 2019 We experimentally demonstrate spatial beam self-cleaning and supercontinuum generation in a tapered Ytterbium-doped multimode optical fiber with parabolic core refractive index profile when 1064 nm pulsed beams propagate from wider (122 µm) into smaller (

Meta-critical thinking, paradox, and probabilities
Frontiers in EducationThere is as much lack of clarity concerning what “critical thinking” involves, even among those charged with teaching it, as there is consensus that we need more emphasis on it in both academia and society.

Compact Broadband Low-Loss Taper for Coupling to a Silicon Nitride Photonic Wire
, 2017 We demonstrate an ultra-compact waveguide taper in Silicon Nitride platform. The proposed taper provides a coupling-efficiency of 95% at a length of 19.5 um in comparison to the standard linear taper of length 50 um that connects a 10 um wide waveguide ...
