Abstract: The dynamic behavior of a finite length cylindrical rod in a fluid filled annulus is considered. The fluid and structure equations are solved simultaneously, with fluid-structure coupling accounted ...

Abstract: Experiments were done to determine conditions under which vertical columns could be built by metal droplets landing sequentially on top of each other. Molten tin droplets (0.6mm diameter) were ...

Abstract: To create functional metal parts by depositing molten metal droplets on top of each other, we have to obtain good metallurgical bonding between droplets. To investigate conditions under which ...

Abstract: Passenger car units (PCU) of different types of vehicles are required to convert a mixed traffic stream into a homogeneous equivalent, and thereby to express the mixed traffic flow in terms of equivalent number of passenger ...

Abstract: Fluidelastic instability of loosely supported tubes, vibrating in a tube support plate (TSP)-inactive mode, is suspected to be one of the main causes of tube failure in some operating steam ...

Abstract: This paper reports analytical and experimental investigations on the static performance of warren beams in torsion. The theoretical results have been found to be in good agreement with the ...

Abstract: Open pore metal foams make efficient heat exchanger because of their high thermal conductivity and low permeability. This study describes a novel method of using wire-arc spraying to deposit ...

Abstract: In this work we analyzed the response of a stenotic trachea after a stent implantation. An endotracheal stent is the common treatment for tracheal diseases such as stenosis, chronic cough, or ...

Abstract: In this work, a fluid-solid interaction (FSI) analysis of a healthy and a stenotic human trachea was studied to evaluate flow patterns, wall stresses, and deformations under physiological and ...
