  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

    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

  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 ...

    The true airspeed corresponding to the critical Mach number generally decreases with altitude. The flight envelope is a plot of various curves representing the limits of the aircraft's true airspeed and altitude. Generally, the top-left boundary of the envelope is the curve representing stall speed, which increases as altitude increases.

    Here and depend on the geometric parameters and the rotational speed of the pump and are assumed to be constant for the purpose of comparison. However, this simple linear relationship undergoes modification on account of various losses and a non-linear, decreasing H − Q {\displaystyle H-Q} relationship is seen in the pump characteristic curve.

  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. Hunting oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunting_oscillation

    There are additional restraining forces applied by the vehicle suspension [10] and, at high speed, the wheel set will generate additional gyroscopic torques, which will modify the estimate of the critical speed. Conventionally a railway vehicle has stable motion in low speeds, when it reaches to high speeds stability changes to unstable form.
