A criterion for mode shape tracking: application to Campbell diagrams:

TL;DR: The nc2o criterion as discussed by the authors is based on the bi-orthogonality properties between rotor mode shapes calculated at different speeds of rotation and is proved using an industrial laminated rotor composed of disks and two fluid film bearings, whose characteristics depend on the speed of rotation.

Spin Stability of a Satellite Equipped with Four Booms

TL;DR: In this paper, a discrete element model is used to study the stability of simple spinning motions of a spacecraft consisting of a rigid body and four radial, elastic booms, and the underlying theoretical basis is a method of stability analysis described previously.

Structural system identification of thin web bridges by observability techniques considering shear deformation

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of shear deformation in the static inverse analysis of thin web bridges is analyzed for the first time in the literature, and an algebraic method is used to obtain not only the flexural stiffness but also the shear one.

Study of a compact energy absorber

Muhammad Ali
TL;DR: In this article, an intelligent compact energy absorbing structure is presented that alleviates the impact by distributing load over finite displacement (stroke), where the structure geometry is observed in the cross-section of a banana peel that has a specific graded cellular packing in a confined space.
