Sui, F., and Ichchou, M. N., 2004, “Prediction of Time-Varying Vibroacoustic Energy Using a New Energy Approach” (ASME J. Vib. Acoust. 126, 184–189)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of transient structural dynamics in the higher-frequency range by an energetic approach. Its main purpose is to propose an alternative equation [Eq. (10) of the ...
Discontinuities in the Sensitivity Curves of Laminated Cylindrical Shells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The discontinuity in the sensitivity of laminated cylindrical shells is investigated via the initial post-buckling analysis. A general procedure for sensitivity, based on Koiter’s parameters and ...
Thermoelastic Stress Analysis: An NDE Tool for Residual Stress Assessment of Metallic Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The primary objective of this report involves studying and developing various experimental techniques for accurate measurement of the mean stress effect in thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA, also ...
Simulations of Cavitating Flows Using Hybrid Unstructured Meshes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new multi-phase model for low speed gas/liquid mixtures is presented; it does not require ad-hoc closure models for the variation of mixture density with pressure and yields thermodynamically ...
Truncation Error Analysis in Turbulent Boundary Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influence of turbulence model and numerical technique on RANS computations is discussed in the case of turbulent boundary layer flow on a flat plate. In particular, results are presented ...
Toward Improved Rotor-Only Axial Fans—Part II: Design Optimization for Maximum Efficiency
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerical design optimization of the aerodynamic performance of axial fans is carried out, maximizing the efficiency in a design interval of flow rates. Tip radius, number of blades, and angular ...
Turbulence Control With Particle Image Velocimetry in a Backward-Facing Step1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new concept of particle image velocimetry (PIV) for turbulence control is introduced. The PIV method is used to measure the flow and supply information on the turbulence quantities on-line ...
On the Criterion for the Determination Transition Onset and Breakdown to Turbulence in Wall-Bounded Flows1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Starting from the basic conservation laws of fluid flow, we investigated transition and breakdown to turbulence of a laminar flat plate boundary layer exposed to small, statistically stationary, ...
Dynamic Characteristics of an In-Contact Head Slider Considering Meniscus Force: Part 3—Wear Durability and Optimization of Surface Energy of Liquid Lubricant Under Perfect Contact Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The authors developed a computer simulator for in-contact head slider motion where a 3-DOF model of head-suspension assembly was introduced and effects of meniscus force between the slider and ...
Determination of Entrained Fraction in Vertical Annular Gas/Liquid Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new technique for the measurement of drop concentration in annular gas/liquid flow is presented. This is based on scattering of light by the drops. From the measured concentration, entrained ...
