Abstract: This research explains an experimental investigation of the concrete applying nonlinear ultrasonic testing technique. Eighteen cubic specimens,

Abstract: The requirements of simple and reliable protocols for the synthesis of nanostructures with controlled morphology continue to be a major challenge in nanoscale. We demonstrate a novel and simplified ...

Abstract: Accumulation of sediment from upstream agricultural land may shorten the lifetime of a reservoir and reduce its long-term benefits. This paper presents a framework for assessment of management strategies that simultaneously ...

Abstract: A theoretical analysis and an experimental study on the efficiency of water jet pumps, where water is used for both the primary and secondary flows, are presented in this paper. The theoretical efficiency equations for ...

Abstract: The flow of a stably stratified fluid, or thermocline, through a cubical enclosure with: (a) strongly conducting; and (b) weakly conducting side-walls, was investigated experimentally. The flow ...

Abstract: Yielding in a crystal structure occurs with plastic slip on preferential planes. It is similar to yielding on maximum shear planes in an isotropic continuum, but in this case the slip is ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present a framework for automated component sizing to extend a designer's ability to evaluate a particular configuration during the architecture exploration phase of a ...

Abstract: The effects of water transport through membrane electrolyte assembly of a polymer exchange membrane fuel cell on cell performance has been studied by a one-dimensional, nonisothermal, steady-state ...

Abstract: In this work, estimates of turbulence were made from pulsatile flow laser Doppler velocimetry measurements using traditional phase averaging and averaging after the removal of cyclic variation. ...
