Nonlinear Dynamic Response of Compliant Journal Bearings

This paper investigates the dynamic response of the compliant tilting pad journal bearings subjected to synchronous excitation.Bearing compliance is affected by the properties of pad liner Table (Set of 3) and pad support geometry.Different unbalance eccentricities are considered.It is shown that bearing dynamic response is non-linear.Journal orbit

Feasibility of Skin Water Content Imaging Using CMOS Sensors

Pressure injuries (PI) result from pressure-induced damage to the skin and underlying tissues.Currently, Stage I PI are detected using visual skin assessments.However, this visual method is unable to detect skin color changes in persons with darkly pigmented skin, which results in a higher Stage II-IV PI incidence and PI-associated mortality in per
