Labyrinth seals are commonly used in turbomachinery in order to control leakage flows. Flutter is one of the most dangerous potential issues for them, leading to High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) life considerations or even mechanical failure. This phenomenon dep...

Experimental monitoring of blade vibration in turbomachinery is typically based on blade-mounted strain gauges. Their signals are used to derive vibration amplitudes which are compared to modal scope limits, including a safety factor. According to indust...

Turbulence intensity impacts the performance of turbine stages and it is an important inlet boundary condition for CFD computations; the knowledge of its value at the turbine inlet is then of paramount importance. In combustor?turbine interaction experim...

An innovative tourist submarine was studied by scale-model tests in a towing tank to determine its steering capabilities and detect motion instabilities during usual manoeuvres and emergency rising. Motion instabilities are caused by the combination of t...

Unreinforced masonry (URM) walls are common load-bearing structural elements in most existing buildings, consisting of masonry units (bricks) and mortar joints. They indicate a highly nonlinear and complex behaviour when subjected to combined compression...

Reducing the added resistance in waves has become a crucial aspect of today?s ship design. The added resistance in waves is traditionally considered proportional to the square of wave height. However, this assumption is believed to be only partly valid, ...
