Experimental Testing of Tip-Timing Methods used for Blade Vibration Measurement in the Aero-Engine [PDF]
, 2004 An important component within the jet engine in terms of vibration and high cycle fatigue (HCF) is the blade. This is the component where continuously higher demands on weight and loading are being made.

Predicting wind turbine blade loads using vorticity transport and RANS methodologies [PDF]
, 2009 Two computational methods, one based on the solution of the vorticity transport equation, and a second based on the solution of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, have been used to simulate the aerodynamic performance of a horizontal axis ...

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Characterisation of glass fibre reinforced acrylic with acrylic‐tailored or multi‐compatible sizing agents. ABSTRACT Fiber‐reinforced infusible acrylic monomer resins are of interest as recyclable alternatives to epoxy and other thermoset resin composites, but the novelty of these resins causes published studies on acrylic‐matrix composites to often ...

Erosion Resistance Enhancement in Epoxy Composites by Recycled Rubber: Effect of Rubber Type
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Erosion resistance enhancement in epoxy composites by recycled rubber. ABSTRACT Epoxy‐based materials have low erosion resistance due to their brittle nature, and toughness modification stands out for enhancing it. At this stage, the use of waste rubber as a reinforcement component in the composite system is of interest due to its role in providing ...

In Situ Curing‐Enabled 3D Printing of Continuous Fiber‐Reinforced Thermosetting Composites
Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.In situ curing‐enabled the 3D printing of continuous fiber/thermoset composites, which were reviewed. Particularly, four types of in situ curing, were discussed, including Radiation‐induced curing, photothermal curing, electrothermal curing, and frontal polymerization. AI‐integrated printing was also analyzed.
