Applying vibration modelling in gas turbines to fault monitoring of the same equipment can assist maintenance planning and extend system life. Bearings are responsible for vibratory phenomena in gas ...

The last few years have shown progress in finite-element analysis intended for use by design engineers. Many programs that work with CAD provide several different types of analysis, and the range of ...

Jet engine vibration is arguably the worst enemy of a typical aircraft maintenance team. Parts which are out of balance can eventually result in a cracked turbine, fan, and compressor components, as ...
