Abstract: A solid bluff object produces a recirculating wake region immediately behind it when subjected to flow separation under a steady flow condition. Similar phenomena can also be observed for a porous body. However, unlike the ...

Abstract: Planar dynamics of a rotor supported by long hydrodynamic journal bearing is investigated theoretically. An analytical model of the long journal bearing system is numerically integrated for analysis of fixed point and ...

Abstract: Large bore reciprocating internal combustion (IC) engines are used in a wide variety of applications such as power generation, transportation, gas compression, mechanical drives, and mining. Each application has its own ...
