Abstract: Modern design of turbine blades usually requires highly loaded, very thin profiles in order to save weight and cost. If local leading edge incidence is kept close to zero, then flow separation ...

Abstract: Stone columns are often employed to increase the bearing capacity of soft clay. Many models—for instance based on plasticity theory or on statistical analysis of empirical data—have been proposed to estimate their bearing ...

Abstract: The materials La2−xSrxNiO4+δ(x=0,0.1) with K2NiF4 structure have been studied in order to explore their potential use as cathodes for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. The introduction ...
