Abstract: This paper presents experimental results from a demonstration of feedback control experiments on an open-ended acoustic duct, using nodally placed colocated actuator-sensor pairs. The disturbance ...

Abstract: Cavitation observations were made using a highly instrumented 2D NACA 0015 hydrofoil mounted in a specially designed water tunnel. It was found that the dynamic characteristics of the cavitation ...

Abstract: This paper reports an experimental investigation of the rotordynamic fluid force and moment on a centrifugal impeller with three types of wear-ring seals; i.e., a face seal and two types of ...

Abstract: In this research a Collaborative Optimization (CO) approach for multidisciplinary systems design is used to develop a decision based design framework for non-deterministic optimization. To date ...
