Abstract: The present experiments are an investigation of the expansion and mixing that occur in a horizontal bed of particles subjected to vibrational accelerations in the direction parallel to gravity. ...

Abstract: Under fluid film lubrication, the particulate contaminants in the fluid cause three-body abrasive wear on critical surfaces. The wear not only depends on the hardness of the wearing surface (Hj ...

Abstract: This paper describes and illustrates a methodology with which alternative design strategies for offshore platforms in combined loading environments may be assessed. The methodology is structured around a decision analysis ...

Abstract: Mass transfer studies in oil-containing multiphase flow provide fundamental knowledge towards the understanding of hydrodynamics and the subsequent effect on corrosion in pipelines. Mass transfer ...
