Numerical solution is obtained for the case where the fluid within the lubricating film is initially at rest, however, at time zero the infinitely long slider suddenly assumes a constant velocity. Subsequently, the velocity and pressure fields are generated yielding time dependent load capacity. The time history of these quantities is presented in a graphical form.

ABSTRACTWe have observed time dependent magnetic switching in spin-valve sandwich structures of Cu/Co/Cu/Fe films grown on silicon and Kapton substrates and Permalloy/Co/Cu/Co films grown on NiO or NiO/CoO coated Si substrates. The giant magnetoresistance (MR) values ranged from 1 to 3 percent at room temperature. The films were grown by DC magnetron sputter deposition. Measurements were made on the time required for the MR to stabilize to about 1 part in 104 after the applied field was incremented. This time depends almost linearly on the amplitude of the timedependent MR change with a slope (time / ΔMR) of 20 000 to 30 000 s. Some samples took as long as 70 s to stabilize. The time dependent effects may be important for devices operating in these regions of the magnetoresistance curve. In addition, measurements were made on the time history of the MR value for a period of 75 s following a step change in the field from saturation. We observed that the time dependent behavior of the MR values of both experiments produced an excellent fit to a function of the form ΔMR(t) = α + β;ln(t) where ɑ and β are constants. This time dependence was consistent with the behavior of the magnetic aftereffect.

A modified Reynolds equation for bump type gas foil thrust bearing was established with consideration of the gas rarefaction coefficient. Under rarefied gas lubrication, the Knudsen number which was affected by the film thickness and pressure was introduced to the Reynolds equation. The coupled modified Reynolds and lubricating film thickness equations were solved using Newton-Raphson Iterative Method and Finite Difference Method. By calculating the load capacity for increasing rotor speeds, the lift-off speed under certain static load was obtained. Parametric studies for a series of structural parameters and assembled clearances were carried out for bearing optimization design. The results indicate that with gas rarefaction effect, the axial load capacity would be decreased, and the lift-off speed would be improved. The rarefied gas has a more remarkable impact under a lower rotating speed and a smaller foil compliance coefficient. When the assembled clearance of the thrust bearing rotor system lies in a small value, the lift-off speed increases dramatically as the assembled clearance decreases further. Therefore, the axial clearance should be controlled carefully in assembling the foil thrust bearing. It’s worth noting that the linear uniform bump foil stiffness model is not exact for large foil compliance ∼0.5, especially for lift-off speed analysis, due to ignoring the interaction between bumps and bending stiffness of the foil.

The water lubrication performance of spiral groove thrust bearings was affected by different groove molded lines. The pressure fields and the load capacity of water-lubricated spiral groove thrust bearings with different groove molded lines were simulated by computational fluid dynamics. The results show that the spiral groove which can produce the best loading capacity and steadier pressure field is appropriate to water-lubricated spiral groove thrust bearing. The line spiral groove can be used for decrease the process difficult when the loading capacity require is low.

An analytical method for predicting the perturbed aerodynamic reactions of a harmonically oscillating flat plate airfoil with time dependent point of separation is presented. It is shown that this method in conjunction with an empirical knowledge of the time history of the separation point can predict stall-flutter. Numerical results are presented and compared with existing theoretical and experimental results with special emphasis on torsional mode of oscillation.

The ISO standard 12004-2:2008E for the determination of forming limit curves based on the section method was approved in 2008. About 4 years of measuring experience in different laboratories has shown advantages and weaknesses of the standard and is leading to some minor changes in the specification. In the years from the development of this standard until today a further technical development of the optical measuring devices occurred, so that it is now possible to determine forming limit curves using the time history of the test. This procedure of determination is referred to a time dependent technique and could be the basis of the ISO 12004 part 2 proposal worked out by the work group Erweiterung FLC ISO 12004 of the German group of the IDDRG. This publication recapitulates existing work which was carried out from the IDDRG work group regarding the determination of forming limit curves for sheet metal materials. On one hand known issues with the current section based approach are discussed and on the other hand it deals with a comparison of different algorithms to determine the FLC from the time history of the Nakajima test using strategies to identify the instant of onset of instable necking. The different time dependent algorithms [ utilised are automatically selecting the area where necking is leading to fracture and then analyze the time history of such points using the first or the second time derivative of the true major strain, or of the true thinning strain using methods like: correlation coefficient (modified method based on [2]), gliding correlation coefficient, linear best fit (modified method based on [3]) and gliding difference of mean to median. The resulting experimental FLC points are compared with the results from the section technique described in ISO 12004 part 2 and with the maximum strain values measured in each test. Further a large number of forming limit curves were determined and used for a comparison of these different methods to define the most promising time dependent algorithm, which was selected as a suggestion for the working group defining the new proposed ISO standard 12004 part 2.

This paper presents a theoretically study on the time-dependent characteristic of soil-nail axial force in the whole construction process of foundation pit. Firstly, the time-varying performance of axial forces of soil nails is analyzed according to the measured lateral deformation curves of pile-anchor and soil-nail composite supporting deep foundation pit. Then combined with a soil rheological model, a time-dependent formula of soil nail axial force is put forward, and the simulated results are compared to the back-analyzed ones. Finally, a formula to predict the time-dependent axial force of soil nail in the whole construction process of foundation pit is established and an example is investigated to validate the method.

The principle of utilizing hydrodynamic effects in diverging films for improving load capacity in gas thrust bearings is discussed. A new concept of dual action bearing based on that principle is described and analyzed. The potential of the new bearing is demonstrated both analytically for an infinitely long slider and by numerical solution for a flat sector shaped thrust bearing. It is shown that the dual action bearing can extend substantially the range of load carrying capacity in gas lubricated thrust bearings and improve their efficiency.

An underwater spark is able to induce a cavitation bubble, and this principle has been utilized to make cavitation bubble generators for several decades. In this paper, an improved instrument for generating spark-induced cavitation bubbles is described in detail. The voltage time history inside the instrument is measured to show the working process and principle. Cavitation bubbles are generated by the instrument and recorded by a high-speed camera. The radius time history of the bubble is obtained using an image processing algorithm. The ratio of its minimum radius to its maximum radius reaches ~0.2, which indicates that there is little undissolved gas in the bubble. With the radius time history, the velocity fields around the bubbles were calculated by the 1D continuity flow equation, and the pressure fields were calculated by the 1D Euler equation. One cavitation bubble is chosen and discussed in detail. The velocity and pressure on the bubble interface achieve their maximums (~25 m/s and ~1.2 MPa, respectively) at the same time, when the radius is at its minimum (~1 mm). Some statistical results are also presented to show the effect of the instrument.

A method and computer program ConRow, which prognostication of development of the dynamically CPLD economic transients is executed by, is described in the article. Such prognostication of economic processes is very important in the cases when their development can result in undesirable consequences, that to go out in the so-called critical area. Extrapolation in a critical area with the use of information about the conduct of the system at an area, near to it, allows to estimate to the lead through of experiment in the critical area of his consequence. For the imitation of conduct of object the function of review is set on entrance influence. For a concrete object this function can express, for example, dependence of change of level sale from time-history of charges on advertising and set as a numeral row. Statistics as a result of analysis of row are represented in a table, where the level of meaningfulness is set statistician, and also parameters of the handed over criteria. The graphic reflection of information is intended for visualization of analysis. Here represented on the points of graphic arts, the crooked smoothing which are calculated as полиномиальные regressions is added. The best approaching is controlled by sight on the proper graph, and also by minimization of their rms errors. Models of prognostication by sight and as formulas represented on graphic arts, the middle is here determined tailings and their chance is checked up on statistics of signs. After the got models determined also and prognosis values of influences and reviews. Establishing an order models of Сr(p) of co integrate regression is carried out separate custom controls. The coefficient of clay correlation of ruФ shows by itself pair correlation between lines with a successive change in relation to each other on a size to лагу of l = 1, 2, 3 . The program was tested on the example of ex-post prognosis at establishing an integration connection and possibility of prognostication of growth of nominal average monthly settlings on the basis of these statistical indexes of consumer inflation in Ukraine.
