Abstract: The manufacturing plant represents a complex environment, rife with uncertainty. The complexity arises from the multitude of interactions that must be considered when attempting to model most ...

Abstract: Two-dimensional laminar heat transfer between a series of parallel plates with surface mounted block heat sources was numerically studied. These channels resemble cooling passages of electronic ...

Abstract: For the field of manufacturing to become a science, it is necessary to develop general mathematical descriptions for the analysis and synthesis of manufacturing systems. Standard analytic models, ...

Abstract: In this paper, a numerical simulation of steady laminar and turbulent flow in a twodimensional model for the total artificial heart is presented. A trileaflet polyurethane valve was simulated ...

Abstract: The influence of water vapor in air on power generation characteristic of solid oxide fuel cells was analyzed by measuring cell voltage at a constant current density, as a function of water ...
