Shape And Size

Inlet and exhaust components represent the major part of the overall gas turbine installation and can, if not correctly designed, impose severe performance penalties and risk of mechanical failure. Due to early problems, considerable research has been undertaken over the past years to understand the mechanism of complex flows in ducts of constrained shape and size to enable a “Design Code of Practice” to be established. The work has been undertaken at UK Research Establishments, and Universities, by the Ministry of Defence, Royal Navy, which has resulted in revised types of installatons in which weight, space, and costs have all been substantially reduced.

Ductility Capacity

Background to seismic design aspects of the provisional New Zealand Code of Practice for Masonry Structural Design is given. Emphasis is given to reasons for differences in the provisional code from an earlier draft code. The changes include improved compatibility with the current Loadings Code NZS 4203 and the Concrete Design Code NZS 3101, provisions of simplified rules to ensure adequate ductility capacity, and additional information to provide guidance for ductile design of masonry frames. Some experimental results are presented to provide support for the provisions.
