Computational Analysis of a Inverted Double-Element Airfoil in Ground Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow around an inverted double-element airfoil in ground effect was studied numerically, by solving the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The predictive capabilities of six turbulence ...
Influence of Diffuser Angle on a Bluff Body in Ground Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The forces and pressures on a generic bluff body in ground effect were investigated. The bluff-body model was equipped with interchangeable underbody diffuser ramps and side plates. Five different ...
Computational Analysis of Pressure and Wake Characteristics of an Aerofoil in Ground Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The pressure and wake of an inverted cambered aerofoil in ground effect was studied numerically by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. Efforts were focused on the setting up ...
Electrocoagulation of Dairy Manure Using Low-Carbon Steel Electrodes for Phosphorus Removal
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: With the recent trend of increasing size for the dairy operations, dairy manure, due to its high content of phosphorus and relatively low nitrogen/phosphorus ratio, is limited when applied in the area where phosphorus is ...
Probabilistic Analysis and Time Variation Model of Concrete Compressive Strength in Existing Buildings
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Probabilistic analysis and time variation model of concrete compressive strength in existing buildings were conducted based on relevant site testing data. The data were collected from rebound hammer (RH) method and core ...
A Computational Study of the Flow Around an Isolated Wheel in Contact With the Ground
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow around an isolated wheel in contact with the ground is computed by the Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) method. Two cases are considered, a stationary wheel on a ...
Design of Porous Asphalt Mixtures by Using the CAVF Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To harmonize the conflict between the durability and drainability of porous asphalt mixtures, the coarse aggregate void filling (CAVF) method is introduced to the design of a porous asphalt mixture. Bulk volume relative ...
Dynamic Analysis of Planar Cooperative Manipulators With Link Flexibility*
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the Timoshenko beam theory and the Finite Element Method, the dynamic equation of planar cooperative manipulators with link flexibility is proposed in absolute coordinates. Taking the actual ...
Computational Investigation of a Race Car Wing With Vortex Generators in Ground Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vortex generators can be applied to control separation in flows with adverse pressure gradients, such as wings. In this paper, a study using three-dimensional steady computations for an inverted ...
Numerical Study on Effect of Joint Strength Mobilization on Behavior of Rock Masses with Large Nonpersistent Joints under Uniaxial Compression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, by analyzing evolution of aperture and contact forces of joints as well as parallel bond breakage, the effect of joint strength mobilization on mechanical behavior of jointed rock masses was studied numerically ...
