Abstract: The different methods of pressurizing powdered solid fuels which have been developed are reviewed briefly, including proposals as well as those in operation. The work has been devoted particularly ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional analysis is presented for the stresses around an elliptic hole in an infinitely long thick plate subjected to uniform tension and shear. The maximum stress is found to ...

Abstract: Many manufacturers in the U.K. are becoming more aware of the benefits achieved by safety and reliability studies on new systems and products, particularly those involved in high risk situations ...

Abstract: The effect of rain in damping surface waves appears to be significant in the estimation of wind speed from the backscatter of radar signal from the sea surface. The radar backscatter depends on the small-scale roughness ...

Abstract: A general review of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) applications in the automotive industry is presented. CFD has come a long way in influencing the design of automotive components due to ...

Abstract: It is generally accepted that the action of baroclinic waves in midlatitude is responsible for raising the static stability of the troposphere above moist neutrality. Previous efforts to quantify this process have concentrated ...

Abstract: Systems of parallel beams connected with springs appear often in engineering. Typical examples are bundles of wires, such as the ones appearing in suspension bridge cables. These connections result in coupling of the ...
