Combustion instability phenomena have been observed in various different combustion systems. For each specific combustion system, pressure fluctuations measured during high frequency combustion instability presented many different characteristics. High frequency instability occurring in a lean premixed gas turbine combustor mar be dominantly affected by a nonlinear relation between pressure oscillations and heat release rate fluctuations, and gas dynamics plays a crucial role in determining an amplitude of a limit cycle for a liquid rocket thrust chamber. Combustion instability phenomena manifest their inherent nonlinear characteristics. One is a limit cycle and the other bifurcation described by nonlinear time series analysis.

This research surveys the threadline instability on the belt texturing machine according to the 1st heater temperature, draw ratio and velocity ratio. the threadline instability to the time, which is called surging phenomena, is analysed with variations of draw ratio and velocity ratio. In addiction, the surging phenomena is investigated with the variation of the untwisting tension and false twist mechanism on the belt texturing machine. The breaking strain, modulus and yam unevenness of the DTY along the yarn length are measured and analysed with the surging phenomena which is due to untwisting tension variation on the threadline according to the draw ratio, 1st heater temperature and velocity ratio.

The paper discusses a combustion instability phenomena encountered in recent solid rocket motor development efforts at ADD(Agency for Defense Development). It has happened to occur as an irregular burning in development of smokeless propellant rocket motor. Through investigating the spectral analysis of accelerometer and strain gage signals which are recorded in static firing tests and acoustic modal analysis of motor inside cavity with ANSYS, the instability is found to be the second tangential mode.

A nonlinear acoustic instability of subcritical liquid-oxygen droplet flames burning in gaseous hydrogen environment are investigated numerically. Emphases are focused on the effects of finite-rate kinetics by employing a detailed hydrogen-oxygen chemistry and of the phase change of liquid oxygen. Results show that if nonlinear harmonic pressure oscillations are imposed, larger flame responses occur during the period that the pressure passes its temporal minimum, at which point flames are closer to extinction condition. Consequently, the flame response function, normalized during one cycle of pressure oscillation, increases nonlinearly with the amplitude of pressure perturbation. This nonlinear response behavior can be explained as a possible mechanism to produce the threshold phenomena for acoustic instability, often observed during rocket-engine tests.

Aeroelastic phenomena of a wind turbine include stall-induced vibrations and classical flutters. The classical flutter occurs due to coalescence between bending mode and torsion mode. It is typically the aeroelastic instability of an aircraft wing. Different from the classical flutter, the stall-induced vibration is the instability in lead-lag mode due to negative aerodynamic dampings. In the present study, the three degree of freedom aeroelastic model of a wind turbine blade is introduced to characterize and analyze its aeroelastic phenomena. The numerical results show that the aeroelastic stability of flap-lag motion is more unstable than that of flap-pitch motion and the aeroelastic characteristics of lead-lag motion can become unstable as wind speed increases.

The present paper is concerned with the development of the computational biology in the past half century and its relationship with combustion. The modem computational biology is considered to be initiated by the work of Alan Turing on the morphogenesis in 1952. This paper first touches the life and scientific achievement of Alan Turing and his theory on the morphogenesis based on the reactive-diffusive instability, called the Turing instability. The theory of Turing instability was later extended to the nonlinear realm of the reactive-diffusive systems, which is discussed in the framework of the excitable media by using the Oregonator model. Then, combustion analogies of the Turing instability and excitable media are discussed for the cellular instability, pattern forming combustion phenomena and flame edge. Finally, the recent efforts on numerical simulations of biological systems, employing the detailed bio-chemical knietic mechanism is discussed along with the possibility of applying the numerical combustion techniques to the computational cell biology.

Stability is a very important part which we must consider in structural design. In this paper, we take advantage of finite element method to study parametrical instability of lattice dome structures, which is subjected to harmonically pulsating load. We consider elastic stiffness and geometrical stiffness simultaneously during the calculation of stiffness matrix, and adopt consistent mass matrix to make the solution more correct. In order to obtain instability regions, we represent displacements and accelerations in dynamic equation by trigonometric series expansions, and then obtain Hill's infinite determinants. After first order approximation, we can get first and second order dynamic instability regions eventually. Finally, we take 24-bar star dome and 90-bar lamella dome as examples to investigate dynamic instability phenomena.

Most of all combustion system has combustion instability. It is a serious problem in combustion system. Unstable injection is one of the source of combustion instability. The experimental investigation of spray characteristics for simplex swirl injector were conducted experimentally. Two kerosene based fuels were chosen as the atomizing fluid. As the major operating parameters, fuel temperature and injection pressure were chosen, and varied in the range from 253 K to 293 K and from 0.2 MPa to 1.0 MPa, respectively. Direct spray images and mean diameter were measured for the various combination of operating parameters in the flow field. The results of present study show that the injection pressure and spray cone angle are fluctuated at specific conditions while it is continuous steady injection. As the fuel temperature changes continuously, spray cone angle varies discontinuously through the region of injection instability.

In the experimental study of $N_2$ purge cold flow test of impinging(FOOF) injector for determining of instability region, the whistling sound which has a specific frequency is generated. The frequency of whistling is proportional to the gas flow velocity in part of the oxidizer orifice and due to the coupling of the vibrating gas column and the natural frequency of pipe-orifice shape, the discontinuous jumping phenomena arises. The whistling phenomena have no effect on the combustion instability. Compared the damping factor of 1T1L mode with the hot fire test, the instability region of $N_2$ purge cold flow test is very much like that. It means that flow instability by impinging or mixing of jet is the main reason of combustion instability of impinging injector(FOOF) in the hot firing test.

The purpose of this paper is to study comparative of dynamic instability characteristic of Geiger-typed cable dome structures by load condition, which is well-known among the cable dome structures that are the lightweight hybrid structure using compression and tension element continuously. Dynamic buckling process in the phase plane is very important thing for understanding why unstable phenomena are sensitively originated in nonlinear dynamic by various initial conditions. But there is no paper for the dynamic instability of hybrid cable dome by Sinusoidal Excitations, many papers which deal with the dynamic instability for shell-structures under the step load have been published. As a result of Geiger-typed cable dome, which shows chaotic behavior in dynamic nonlinear analysis with initial imperfection.
