On the evaluation of mechanical properties of honeycombs by using finite element analyses
This paper presents some general two- and three-dimensional finite element models to study the equivalent orthotropic mechanical properties of honeycombs. The models are developed on a representative volume element with...
Application of Modified Newton Flow Model to Earth Reentry Capsules
This paper presents an implementation of the modified Newton method for the aerodynamic analysis of Planetary Reentry Capsules. A straightforward method is employed, such that a CATIA model and its hybrid surface mesh ar...
The torsion of the multicell sections
The paper is focused on the stress analysis of thin-walled multicell sections subjected to pure torsion. The shear flow and stiffness characteristics of the cross section for torsion are given. Example: aircraft wing sec...
Influence of wind on aerodynamic drag for the second case of the arrangement of the equipment on the LE 060EA locomotive bodywork
The electric power supply equipment of electric railways vehicles of surface is placed on the their body. The arrangement of the equipment on the vehicle body determines the variation of the aerodynamic drag. The gusts o...
Methodologies of Measuring Mechanical Power Delivered at the Shaft of an Induction Motor Driven by VFD
Measuring precise power used by a load of an induction motor driven by a VFD implies a few facts that need to be considered. First, the real electric power. When dealing with waveforms of electric current that contain ha...
