    摘要: Methods, systems and computer program products for assessing residual life of an airfoil, which would experience high cycle fatigue failure under at- or near-resonance vibration condition, are provided. The method includes receiving, at a processing system, at least one vibration response parameter associated with the airfoil. The method processes at least one cracked airfoil finite element model. Processing the cracked airfoil finite element model includes accessing the cracked airfoil finite element model, computing a modal stress intensity factor (SIF) of the cracked airfoil finite element model using fracture mechanics based finite element analysis, and computing a vibratory SIF based, at least in part, on the modal SIF and the at least one vibration response parameter. The method then computes a residual life indicator of the airfoil based, at least in part, on the vibratory SIF.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for detecting the relative proportion of various fabric types present in a clothes load in a clothes washer are provided, in which a set of fuzzy logic membership functions is defined at each clothes load weight across a range of expected load weights to be handled by the clothes washer, with the set of membership functions representing various fabric types that might be present in the clothes load. The membership functions are defined at least in part by a washer operating state that is to be sensed during initial washer operation, and the method includes obtaining a value for the clothes load weight, sensing a value of the washer operating state, and determining a degree of fulfillment of the sensed value in each of the membership functions defined for that given clothes load. The degree of fulfillment represents the relative proportion of the various fabric types for which membership functions are defined, and the information regarding the resultant degrees of fulfillment may be employed in controlling the operation of the washer for optimal performance. The apparatus constitutes a washer controller having a microprocessor that receives signals corresponding to the weight of the clothes load, the sensed value of the predetermined washer operating state, and has stored therein the data necessary to generate the set of membership functions for each clothes load weight.

    摘要: An energy efficient washing machine includes a cleansing fluid supply system, a washer basket having an agitator device for displacing the articles to be cleansed within the basket, and a closed loop water level controller coupled to the cleansing fluid supply system and to the drive system for the agitator. The fluid supply system includes a fill nozzle designed to provide a clothes-positioning spray pattern that serves to maintain the articles evenly distributed in the basket to enables the load sensing systems of the closed loop adaptive water level controller to function to accurately provide the optimal water level for cleansing. To accomplish this positioning of the articles to be cleansed, the fluid fill nozzle typically provides a fan discharge of fluid passing therethrough and is disposed at a cant angle with respect to the direction of rotation of the basket such that the fan discharge covers an area between the agitator assembly and the sidewall of the basket.
