    • Axial Alignment And Thermal Growth Effects On Turbomachinery Trains With Double-Helical Gearing. 
      Eldridge, Thom; Elliot, Greg; Martin, Ed; Hitam, M. Shukri (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2005)
      Turbomachinery shafting and casings typically experience axial growth during thermal transients occurring at startup, shutdown, and changes of load. This growth does not usually present difficulties during operation. ...
    • Tilting Pad Journal Bearing Starvation Effects 
      Nicholas, John C.; Elliott, Greg; Shoup, Thomas P.; Martin, Ed (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2008)
      Improved turbomachinery aerodynamic performance requirements have increased journal bearing operating speeds and loads well above traditionally acceptable values. For example, for high performance gearboxes, pinion bearing ...
