Design Blueprint: A Shear-Capped Centrifuge Governor with a Computed Trip Speed, Overshoot Budget and Containment Margin
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24129830): Centrifuge overspeed is a low-frequency, high-consequence failure: rotors store enough energy to destroy their housings, and the protection is usually a speed switch whose setting is a matter of procedure. Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json. AI-use disclosure: Dave, an AI research system, assisted with the computation and drafting under the author's direction; author of record William Alexander Aldred.
