Industrial fans are required for many power plants to operate, such as primary and secondary air fans, and induced draft fans. Understanding rotor dynamics is essential for reliable long-term fan ...

General Dynamics UK has joined forces with European missile maker MBDA to position itself for an upcoming British Army requirement to field an “Overwatch” anti-armor vehicle to support the army’s ...

Particle damping has emerged as an effective passive method to suppress unwanted vibrations in a range of engineering applications. By utilising the inelastic collisions and friction between granular ...

The Dynamics and Control Group addresses research problems relating to modelling, simulation and control of civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering systems. The research group focuses on the ...

High vibration is a common problem for motors installed on top of vertical pumps. Its source can stem from a mechanical issue with the pump, motor, or coupling — or even hydraulic forces from the pump ...

Nonlinearities are ever-present in various engineering problems and play a crucial role in the analysis, design, and control of engineering systems as they can drastically change the dominant ...

Many readers probably think “black magic” describes the math involved in finding the dynamic response of a structure from random excitation. When can you be sure you have jumped through all the ...
