... cracks in cell walls, as well as parametrizable uncertainty due to variability in wall thickness and inlet air velocity. Nondeterministic metamodels for estimating total steady state heat transfer rates in linear cellular alloy heat exchangers are developed and the results of using these metamodels...

...M. A. Mohiuddin; Y. A. Khulief A general dynamic model for a large-scale rotor-bearing system with a cracked shaft is introduced. A finite shaft element with a crack is developed using a consistent finite element approach. The model accommodates shafts with tapered portions, multiple disks...
