Content Inside: This paper addresses the statistical uncertainty of loads prediction using structural dynamics simulation codes and the requirements for the number and duration of simulations for obtaining robust load estimates. Substantial statistical variation is observed in loads data and a statistical model that enables extrapolation and determination of quantiles is ...

Content Inside: Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) analysis was performed using FLUENT to analyze the fluid thermal performance of a Battery cell container for the Ford Fusion Hybrid Electric Vehicle. The objective of the design was to maintain the cells in their desired operating temperature range with a near uniform temperature among ...

The superior output power-to-weight ratio of the gas turbine engine has made it the mainstay of modern aviation propulsion for both civilian and military applications. The capability of producing high output power at low engine weight has also made it a common propulsion system in both marine and armored military ...

Content Inside: Highly flexible handling devices which carry loads or generate great forces, demand the use of hydraulic driven manipulators. Of crucial importance here are type and quality of the mechanism conveying motion between the jibs. This paper wil introduce designs of mechanism which can be applied to swing the arms ...

Content Inside : In first stage of each microwave receiver there is Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) circuit, and this stage has important rule in quality factor of the receiver. The design of a LNA in Radio Frequency (RF) circuit requires the trade-off many importance characteristics such as gain, Noise Figure (NF), ...
