Numerical illustration of the global and local stability and instability of the constant spatially developing 1D gas flow

In this paper different types of stabilities (global, local) with respect to instantaneous perturbations and permanent source produced time harmonic perturbations are numerically illustrated in case of a constant spatial...

Multifunctional composites and nanocomposites with applications in the aerospace industry

Polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) ,namely, nanoparticles dispersed in a polymer matrix, have garnered academic and industrial interest since 1990. This is due to the very attractive properties of nanostructurated fillers, a...

A computational methodology for a micro launcher engine test bench using a combined linear static and dynamic in frequency response analysis

This article aims to provide a quick methodology to determine the critical values of the forces, displacements and stress function of frequency, under a combined linear static (101 Solution - Linear Static) and dynamic l...
