Identification of Axial Air-Foil Bearings and Radial Air-Foil Bearings
Abstract: Air-foil bearings (AFBs) are self-acting hydrodynamic bearings, a shaft is supported by a compliant, spring-loaded foil journal lining. Once the shaft is spinning fast enough, the working fluid (usually air) pushes the foil away from the shaft so that there is no contact. The shaft and foil are divided by air's high pressure which is produced by the rotation which pulls gas into the bearing via viscosity effects. AFBs provide …

Generative Design and Simulation for Castor Wheel Assembly
Abstract: A castor wheel CAD model can be used to optimise the wheel's design for avariety of elements, including load capacity, durability, and use. Given theemployment of evolutionary algorithms and search strategies in thiscomputational process, generative design, also known as evolutionary design,is not a new idea. It can be characterised as a prototype design system thatcreates fresh conceptual designs from scratch using a genetic algorithm. In thismethod, a prototype system generates …
