Abstract: Turbulent structures near the boundaries (solid wall and gas-liquid interface) have been studied in open channel flows. Experiments with no shear, countercurrent shear, and cocurrent shear at the ...

Abstract: A hydraulic actuator was designed and is described herein. This actuator consists of: a pump, which generates the nominal pressure, a hydraulic servovalve, and a thin elastic plate, which ...

Abstract: A re-examination of rotor-bearing instability has led to a fresh approach that can potentially improve measurement accuracy of journal bearing rotordynamic coefficients. The approach uses a ...

Abstract: This paper presents and discusses the experimental and numerical results performed on a 3D modular steel frame under sudden corner support removal scenarios. A modular steel frame was designed according to Australian ...

Abstract: A mathematical model for free convective boundary-layer flow of a nanofluid with second-order velocity slip over a permeable vertical flat plate has been presented. The system of governing equations is first nondimensionalized, ...

Abstract: This paper presents the findings of an experimental and numerical study on the system identification of modular steel frames in a laboratory environment. The project is a part of a broad study about the structural response ...
