Abstract: A cold plate is couplable with a component for dissipating heat from a component. The cold plate includes a top plate coupled with a bottom plate to receive a cooling medium therebetween. The top plate includes a body and a plurality of walls extending from the body, wherein each wall of the plurality of walls includes a recess extending within the wall. The bottom plate includes a body and a plurality of walls extending from the body such that an end portion of each wall of the bottom plate is inserted within the recess of each wall of the top plate to form an interlocking joint.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for suppressing vibration in an aircraft having at least one pair of multiple-blade rotors. The first step of the method is to install in the aircraft at least one pair of vibration suppression devices to form a system, the devices of each system being mounted on opposing sides of the aircraft. Then, during operation of the aircraft, the next step is to rotate the at least one pair of rotors in a manner that causes the blades one of each pair of rotors to be out of phase from the other of each pair of rotors. The final step is to use the system to suppress vibrations caused by the out-of-phase rotation of the rotors.
