... made in the present study, the need for actual experimentation focusing on the time-dependent behavior of full-scale flywheel rotors is self-evident. composite flywheel rotating disk time-dependent material PMC viscoplasticity viscoelasticity Atef F. Saleeb, 1Steven M. Arnold, 2...

... Fatigue crack growth rates were generated from four rim cracks in a rotating disk that was evaluated with the TURBISTAN loading spectra. A fractographic investigation revealed the results of correlating variable-amplitude load cycles with fatigue crack striations and that constant-amplitude...

.... By imposing temporal perturbations on the deflections, the equations for stability of the vibration and the forward and backward traveling waves are derived and discussed. vibration wave propagation rotating disk orthotropy stability Hisaichi Ohnabe,^ Osamu Funatogawa,^ and Mototsugu Itoh...

... on compact specimens of 304 and 4340 steels and also on rotating disks of 4340 steel indicate that the onset of crack growth in a structure with finite thickness can be estimated by using the empirical formula and the J Ic -value of the compact specimen. elastic-plastic fracture structure compact...

... and the time of exposure to cavitation was measured for each blade individually. Comparative tests, using the same material, have been carried out in a rotating disk apparatus and a magnetostriction oscillator. The erosion rates of the propeller model and of the specimens tested in the rotating disk apparatus...
