Abstract: An axial flow compressor for use in a gas turbine or other industrial application having an improved efficiency is provided through modification of the blade shape and profile of the blades subject to a subsonic high velocity inlet flow so as to avoid shock losses in the blade rows, and improve the total efficiency. The curvature distribution on the suction surface of the stator blade rows or rotor blade rows of the axial flow compressor is adapted to have a local minimum in a region toward the leading edge of the blade, and then a local maximum. Thereby, an excessive increment in velocity on the suction surface from the leading edge to the position of the maximum velocity can be suppressed, and the occurrence of a shock wave can be avoided so as to minimize pressure loss in the blade rows, thus increasing the total efficiency of the axial compressor.

Abstract: A suspension control system for enhancing the response characteristic of a vehicle body vibration suppressing control by lowering the spring constant or the damping force to a first desired level for both front and rear wheels at a time or only the rear wheel for a predetermined time in accordance with a differential value of an output signal from an acceleration detecting means in the vertical direction of the vehicle body, to thereby soften the shock of the vehicle body when the rear wheels get over a protuberance, and also by changing the spring constant or the damping force settled beforehand to a second desired level for both front and rear wheels at a time in case an unnecessary vibration of the vehicle body is detected afterwards. The second desired level is held for a predetermined time or continuously to suppress vertical vibrations of the vehicle body.

Abstract: A control apparatus which detects vertical and/or lateral vibrations of a vehicle body and controls, on the basis of amplitude and frequency of vibration, a characteristic of a support unit for supporting the vehicle body, such as, a damping force and a spring force of suspension or torsion quantity of a stabilizer. The control apparatus, when the detected vibration is high frequency vibration, obtains the frequency of vibration by a measured value of one cycle period, and, when the detected vibration is low frequency vibration, obtains the frequency of vibration by a measured value of a half cycle period.
