Abstract: This paper describes six final year undergraduate research projects supported by a collaboration between the Whittle Laboratory at the University of Cambridge and Reaction Engines (RE), a UK aerospace company. The collaboration ...

Abstract: In this paper we discuss teaching fluid mechanics to civil and environmental engineering majors at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Fluid mechanics is a key course in environmental engineering that ties together ...

Abstract: Artificial upwelling and mixing is a new technology for enhancing open ocean mariculture using nutrient-rich deep ocean water. A wave-driven artificial upwelling device was developed based on mathematical modeling and ...

Abstract: The effect of surface characteristics on the daytime change in the potential for development of deep convection resulting from surface flux of heat and moisture is evaluated by conceptual, scaling, and numerical modeling ...

Abstract: Counter-rotating turbomachines have the potential to be high efficiency, high power density devices. Comparisons between conventional and counter-rotating turbomachines in the literature make multiple and often contradicting ...

Abstract: The first deployment of an emission-based aerosol sodium detector (ASD), designed to chemically characterize marine aerosols on a near-real-time basis, is reported. Deployment occurred as part of the Shoreline Environment ...
