Abstract: In this paper, we present our recent experimental results on buoyancy-induced convection in aluminum metal foams of different pore densities [corresponding to 5, 10, 20, and 40 pores per in. ...

Abstract: Comprehensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are developed and analyzed in this paper to study the three-dimensional flow through simulated nuclear fuel bundles with angular misalignments ...

Abstract: The gas removal process during electrolysis is studied with the aim of identifying hydrodynamic transitions, analogous to those which occur in boiling. The local peak in the electrolysis gas ...

Abstract: Second and fourth order polynomials describing the yield criterion for perforated plates with square penetration pattern were developed following the methodology shown by Hill (1950) and later ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present recent experimental results on forced convective heat transfer in novel finned metal foam heat sinks. Experiments were conducted on aluminum foams of 90 percent porosity ...

Abstract: Incremental sheet metal forming (ISMF) has demonstrated its great potential to form complex three-dimensional parts without using a component specific tooling. The die-less nature in incremental ...
