Abstract: To further improve the efficiency of turbomachinery, an advanced aerodynamic optimization system has been developed for the turbomachinery blade optimization design. The system includes parametric ...

Abstract: A preconditioned numerical method for gas-liquid two-phase flows is applied to solve cavitating flow. The present method employs a finite-difference method of the dual time-stepping integration ...

Abstract: A new approach to the limit equilibrium method is developed and used for the analysis of soil nailed walls. The basic procedure of the new approach is to compute the interslice forces by recursion and to fulfill the ...

Abstract: This research evaluated nitrogen-removing bioretention systems for control of nutrients, organics, and solids in agricultural runoff. Pilot-scale experiments were conducted with bioretention systems incorporating aerobic ...

Abstract: In the construction of pipe jacking, the calculated jacking force is often greater than the actual measured value. In particular, the deviation between calculated and actual frictional resistance is large. Moreover, during ...
