Creator:: Hamann, David Eugene
Abstract:: The crankshaft of an internal combustion engine experiences torsional vibrations which become critical at certain running speeds and can cause overstressing in the crankshaft, leading to failure in some cases. The object of this study was to design, construct and test an instrument to measure these oscillations at one point...

Creator:: Thompson, Roger S.
Abstract:: The equations of motion of a suspended, inextensible cable in the absence of damping are studied. A method is developed and illustrated for determining the frequencies and mode shapes for small oscillations about the equilibrium configuration. With the introduction of a new variable, the fourth order equation governing tangential displacement...

Creator:: Gale, John Gregg
Abstract:: The equations of motion of an elastic cable suspended in a viscous medium from two arbitrary points are derived. These are then linearized for the undamped, inextensible case, and it is found that the equations describing the in-plane motion of the cable are then independent of the equation describing the...
