Chestermiller's latest activity

Is this an existing physical piece of equipment that you can perform experiments on, or is it a schematic of a damping concept that you...

Are you familiar with lubrication flow analysis? Do you know how to solve the problem of laminar flow between two infinite parallel plates?

I would first derive and solve the equations for the fluid dynamics of the system. Do you know how to solve axial annular laminar flow...

The viscous damper I described in post #2 does not require CFD analysis to quantify its behavior. It can solved analytically for the...

I'm thinking of a cylinder with a piston in which the clearance between the piston and the cylinder wall is finite. The piston is long...

Damping is often approximated using an ideal dashpot. Is that what you are searching for: an approximate equation for the dashpot...

100% RH means that the partial pressure of the water in the tire is equal to the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at the air...

The table in the first method used integration with respect to temperature also. It would seem to be a matter of the difference in the...

Yes, neglecting dissipation factors such as air drag.

A quasi-static path is considered to represent a continuous sequence of thermodynamic equilibrium states.

Who says that in thermodynamics, we study gases that are in thermodynamics equilibrium? The states of the gas in irreversible processes...

$$\Delta S=\int dS=\int dQ/T$$ is the definition of change in entropy, where dQ is the infinitesimal heat flow over a reversible path...

Was it also called the Missouri School of Mines, or is that something different?

For large deformations, the definition of the strain tensor is not unique. There are many tensorial forms at large deformation that...

Thermal chemical decomposition of the rubber.
