Bearing System

This paper presents an overview of the development of a reliable bearing system for a new line of small turbochargers where the bearing system has to be compatible with a new compressor and turbine design. The first part demonstrates how the increased weight of the turbine, due to a 40 % increase in flow capacity, influences the dynamic stability of the rotor-bearing system. The second part shows how stability can be improved by optimizing important floating ring parameters and by applying different bearing designs, such as profiled bore bearings supported on squeeze film dampers. Test results and stability analyses are included as well as the criteria which led to the decision to choose a squeeze film backed symmetrical 3-lobe bearing for this new turbocharger design.

Linear Buckling Analysis

In the present paper the non-linear buckling analysis of functionally graded spherical shells subjected to external pressure is investigated. The material properties are graded in the thickness direction according to the power-law distribution in terms of volume fractions of the constituents of the material. In the formulation of governing equations geometric non-linearity in all strain-displacement relations of the shell is considered. Using Bubnov-Galerkin's method to solve the problem an approximated analytical expression of non-linear buckling loads of functionally graded spherical shells is obtained, that allows easily to investigate stability behaviors of the shell.

Structure Collapse

Submersible structures consist merely of simple and double curvature thin-walled shells. For this kind of structure, collapse occurs due to the combined nonlinear action of buckling and plasticity of material. Load-carrying capacity may then be assessed mainly by two approaches: experimental investigations and step-by-step numerical procedures. In nonlinear analyses, the results obtained are influenced by the magnitude of the load increment adopted. Solution procedures are then required in order to choose adequate parameters for material failure description as well as elastic nonlinearity. The aim of this paper is to carry out a suitable numerical procedure whose reliability does not depend on the finite-element code adopted.
