Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSomething about the Mechanical Moment of InertiaFlorian Ion T. Petrescu, Antonio Apicella, Aversa Raffaella et al.In this study, the relations to determining mass moments of inertia (mechanical) for different mass and mechanical inertia corresponding to geometric shapes, objects and profiles are explored. The formulas for calculating the mass moments of inertia (mechanical) for various bodies (various geometrical forms), to certain major axis indicated (as the axis of calculation) are presented. The total mass M of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 4 Nov 2016 · 11,376 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGeometry Modification of Flywheels and its Effect on Energy StorageShenel Bankston, Changki MoThis paper examines the influence of various geometric configurations of flywheels on kinetic energy storage performance using finite element analysis. Historically flywheels have been used in various applications. From such applications as pottery wheels to steam engines, flywheels have been used to store mechanical energy. Currently, in the ever expanding world of green energy development, flywheel energy storage systems provide … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Sep 2015 · 8,414 accessesView PDFCite
