Abstract: Transient thermochromic liquid crystal thermography, a laser-Doppler velocimeter, and pressure transducers have been used to measure the local heat transfer, velocity, and wall static-pressure ...

Abstract: Laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV) measurements are presented of turbulent flow in a two-pass square-sectioned smooth duct simulating the coolant passages employed in gas turbine blades under rotating ...

Abstract: This study investigates the flow field and the hydrodynamic forces induced by the tilting lift of a large object from a rigid porous seabed using an analytical approach. The flow in the corners between the object and the ...

Abstract: Unbonded flexible pipes are widely utilized in the exploitation of offshore oil and gas resources. They are connected to two of the most critical types of system: floating production platforms and underwater production ...

Abstract: Laser-doppler velocimetry and transient thermochromic liquid crystal measurements are presented to understand local fluid flow and surface heat transfer distributions in a rotating ribbed duct with ...

Abstract: Polyurethane-bound porous mixture (PPM) is a new type of pavement material that has shown some potential for overcoming common asphalt mixtures mechanical failures. However, little research has been done on its skid ...
