Abstract: We present the results of an experimental investigation into the behavior of a strongly advected jet (weak jet) in a coflowing ambient fluid. Laser-induced-fluorescence and image processing techniques are employed to provide ...

Abstract: Interaction between a jet and its neighbors in a still ambient fluid is dealt with. A model for the merging of an infinite line of equally spaced identical jets in a still ambient fluid is developed. The velocity and tracer ...

Abstract: This paper presents a technique for front image sensing of the weld pool in variable polarity plasma arc welding of aluminum alloys, and describes the determination of the geometrical size of ...

Abstract: The intraluminal thrombus (ILT) commonly found within abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) may serve as a barrier to oxygen diffusion from the lumen to the inner layers of the aortic wall. The ...

Abstract: Accurate estimation of the wall stress distribution in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) may prove clinically useful by predicting when a particular aneurysm will rupture. Appropriate constitutive ...

Abstract: Deterioration of indoor air quality attributable to airborne bacterial consortia is a widespread environmental problem. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of applying the syngetic effect of nano-

Abstract: Numerous studies have been conducted to evaluate the influence of internal erosion on the geotechnical properties of soil under unidirectional seepage. Yet cyclic gradients prevail in natural or engineering systems, and ...
