Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

Multi-aeroelastic phenomena modelling part I: the development of whole LPC model for civil turbofan engine by Kulkarni, D, Lad, B, di Mare, L

“…These information-rich simulation models are interrogated to extract various parameters of interest to assess multiple aeroelastic phenomena such as, 1EO fan forced response, fan alternating passage divergence (APD) forced response, OGV buffet, and OGV resonant forced response etc. In the second part of this paper, the application of this modelling methodology is demonstrated to evaluate and to better understand the efficacy of OGV asymmetric cyclic patterns. …”
