Abstract: A model to predict the dynamics of a workpiece-fixture system has been developed based on the equivalency of the dynamic frictional contact problem with a nonlinear friction law to that of a ...

Abstract: Gurney flaps of different heights have been fitted to a generic double-element wing, and the effects at two typical flap angles have been observed using force and pressure measurements, and ...

Abstract: Present day turbogenerator installations are statically indeterminate rotor-bearing-foundation systems utilizing nonlinear hydrodynamic bearings. For optimal balancing and diagnostic purposes it is ...

Abstract: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) flow simulation techniques have the potential to enhance our understanding of how haemodynamic factors are involved in atherosclerosis. Recently, 3D ultrasound ...
