    Abstract: Because zinc is so important across numerous functions, a deficiency of it can cause a host of problems. Zinc deficiency during pregnancy can negatively affect both the mother and fetus. A healthy, balanced diet can help provide necessary minerals and vitamins. Zinc deficiency is caused by inadequate levels of zinc in the diet. It also plays a role... Show More

    Abstract: A method of determining equivalent viscous damping ratio for different rotational speeds and modes as a function of displacement or strain at a reference point in a blade is presented. This method can be adopted using a suitable finite element code, e.g., ANSYS or ABAQUS. The friction damping concept is widely used to reduce resonance stresses in t... Show More
