Abstract: A wide range of engineered and natural composites exhibit a layered architecture whereby individual building blocks are assembled layer by layer using cohesive interfaces. We present a novel mechanism for evolving acoustic ...

Abstract: In this paper, due to its advantages of high accuracy and moderate computational cost, detached eddy simulation (DES) is adopted to observe detail flow characteristics of a kind of vertical axial wind turbine equipped with ...

Abstract: Production of functionally graded materials (FGMs, i.e., a gradual transition from one material to another) and components is challenging using conventional manufacturing techniques. Additive manufacturing (AM) provides a ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the study of a kind of discrete forcing immersed boundary method (IBM) by which the loosely aero-elasticity coupled method is developed to analyze turbine blade vibration. In order to reduce ...

Abstract: Support structures are always associated with laser-based powder-bed fusion (L-PBF) processes, particularly for additive manufacturing of metallic components of complex geometry with overhang structures and for reducing ...
