Abstract: The convection velocity of vortex structures in the near wake of a circular cylinder was experimentally investigated over the region

Abstract: The ball impact test is developed as a package-level measure of the board-level reliability of solder joints in the sense that it leads to brittle intermetallic fracturing, similar to that ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental investigation on the characteristics of a horseshoe vortex system near the juncture of a square cylinder and a horizontal base plate, using particle image velocimetry and flow visualization ...

Abstract: We present in this paper parametric studies of board-level reliability of wafer-level chip-scale packages subjected to a specific pulse-controlled drop test condition. Eighteen experiment cells, ...

Abstract: This paper presents simultaneous measurements using particle image velocimetry (PIV) and laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV) techniques on the study of a horseshoe vortex system. The horseshoe vortex system is generated near ...

Abstract: In this paper, a base isolator called a multiple direction optimized-friction pendulum system (Multiple DO-FPS) with numerous sliding interfaces is proposed. To understand the mechanical behavior ...

Abstract: An

Abstract: Flow characteristics around a circular cylinder positioned near a plane boundary (on which laminar boundary layer flow develops in the absence of circular cylinder), are investigated for Reynolds numbers

Abstract: The deformation response of a simple cord composite to an axial load and twisting moment was found analytically. The simple cord composite consists of a metallic cord surrounded by a concentric circular cylindrical matrix ...

Abstract: Sisal fibers (SF) and polycarboxylate superplasticizers (PCE) contribute to the sustainable development of cementitious materials by improving and optimizing their hardening properties. In this study, the impact of SF and ...
