  2. Critical speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_speed

    Both calculate an approximation of the first natural frequency of vibration, which is assumed to be nearly equal to the critical speed of rotation. The Rayleigh–Ritz method is discussed here. For a shaft that is divided into n segments, the first natural frequency for a given beam, in rad/s , can be approximated as:

  3. 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 ...

  4. Dunkerley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunkerley's_Method

    The whirling frequency of a symmetric cross section of a given length between two points is given by: = where: E = Young's modulus, I = second moment of area, m = mass of the shaft, L = length of the shaft between points.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Moody chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moody_chart

    In engineering, the Moody chart or Moody diagram (also Stanton diagram) is a graph in non-dimensional form that relates the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor f D, Reynolds number Re, and surface roughness for fully developed flow in a circular pipe.

  7. Bean's critical state model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bean's_critical_state_model

    Calculated magnetization curve for a superconducting slab, based on Bean's model. The superconducting slab is initially at H = 0. Increasing H to critical field H* causes the blue curve; dropping H back to 0 and reversing direction to increase it to -H* causes the green curve; dropping H back to 0 again and increase H to H* causes the orange curve.

  8. Assured clear distance ahead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assured_Clear_Distance_Ahead

    In the fifth case, critical speed V cs applies when road curvature is the factor limiting safe speed. A vehicle which exceeds this speed will slide out of its lane. Critical speed is a function of curve radius r , superelevation or banking e , and friction coefficient μ ; [ 124 ] the constant g again is the acceleration of gravity.

  9. Rayleigh's equation (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh's_equation_(fluid...

    At the critical layers Rayleigh's equation becomes singular. These were first being studied by Lord Kelvin, also in 1880. [4] His solution gives rise to a so-called cat's eye pattern of streamlines near the critical layer, when observed in a frame of reference moving with the phase speed . [3]
