  2. Dunkerley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunkerley's_Method

    Dunkerley's method [1] [2] is used in mechanical engineering to determine the critical speed of a shaft-rotor system. Other methods include the Rayleigh–Ritz method . Whirling of a shaft

  4. Duff's device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duff's_device

    In the C programming language, Duff's device is a way of manually implementing loop unrolling by interleaving two syntactic constructs of C: the do-while loop and a switch statement. Its discovery is credited to Tom Duff in November 1983, when Duff was working for Lucasfilm and used it to speed up a real-time animation program.

  5. Rotordynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotordynamics

    The critical speed of a rotating machine occurs when the rotational speed matches its natural frequency. The lowest speed at which the natural frequency is first encountered is called the first critical speed, but as the speed increases, additional critical speeds are seen which are the multiples of the natural frequency.

  6. Critical embankment velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_embankment_velocity

    For engineering design, improving the critical embankment velocity to a higher value as compared with the operating speed is a conservative way to protect the passengers safety. As the issues related to the critical embankment velocity taking place after the operation of lines for many years, mitigation measures play an imperative role for the ...

  7. Campbell diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell_diagram

    Analysis shows that there are well-damped critical speed at lower speed range. Another critical speed at mode 4 is observed at 7810 rpm (130 Hz) in dangerous vicinity of nominal shaft speed, but it has 30% damping - enough to safely ignore it. Analytically computed values of eigenfrequencies as a function of the shaft's rotation speed. This ...

  8. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

  9. Carry-skip adder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry-skip_adder

    The critical path of a carry-skip-adder begins at the first full-adder, passes through all adders and ends at the sum-bit .Carry-skip-adders are chained (see block-carry-skip-adders) to reduce the overall critical path, since a single -bit carry-skip-adder has no real speed benefit compared to a -bit ripple-carry adder.
