Abstract: Axial and tangential components of the velocity vector are measured using a Laser Doppler Velocimeter (LDV) system in a confined highly turbulent isothermal swirling flow near a swirl plate. ...

Abstract: Surface properties, including topography and chemistry, are of prime importance in establishing the response of tissues to biomaterials. Microfabrication techniques have enabled the production of ...

Abstract: Sprays from an injector with a conical oscillating poppet and supplied with fuel at injection rates similar to those used in direct-injection stratified-charge engines have been characterized. ...
