Abstract: This paper investigates the temperature fields in a centrally staged swirl spray combustor using two-line OH planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) thermometry at elevated inlet pressures and temperatures up to 0.62 MPa ...

Abstract: The equilibrium equations and boundary conditions in terms of the second Piola–Kirchhoff membrane stress and moment are given in this note, which are necessary for the finite deformation analysis of shells.

Abstract: AbstractEvidence has suggested a wetting trend over part of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) in recent decades, although there are large uncertainties in this trend due to sparse observations. Examining the change in the moisture ...

Abstract: As one of emerging novel surface treatment techniques, laser polishing offers a cost-effective and efficient solution to reduce surface roughness of precision components at micro-/mesoscale. Although it has been applied ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel underactuated (UA) finger with first coupled and secondly selfadaptive (COSA) grasping mode. COSA fingers can adaptively grasp objects with different sizes and shapes while its motions during ...

Abstract: The nonlinear fractional-order Fokker–Planck differential equations have been used in many physical transport problems which take place under the influence of an external force filed. Therefore, high-accuracy numerical ...

Abstract: Curvature is simply expressed as the second derivative of the plate deflection in prior studies of postbuckling of plates. It is shown in this paper that the higherorder terms in curvature should be retained, consistent ...

Abstract: In order to balance the low emission and wide stabilization for lean premixed prevaporized (LPP) combustion, the centrally staged layout is preferred in advanced aero-engine combustors. However, compared with the conventional ...

Abstract: he arid and semiarid region in central Asia is sensitive and vulnerable to climate variations. However, the sparse and highly unevenly distributed meteorological stations in the region provide limited data for understanding ...

Abstract: his study develops a new variance-based uncertainty assessment framework to investigate the individual and combined impacts of various uncertainty sources on future extreme floods. The Long Ashton Research Station Weather ...
