Abstract: An aerodynamic design method, which is based on the Mean Stream Surface Method (MSSM), has been developed for designing centrifugal compressor impeller blades. As a component of a CAD system ...

Abstract: The general theory for three-dimensional flow in subsonic and supersonic turbo-machines has recently been extended to transonic turbomachines. In this paper, which is Part II of the study, quasi- ...

Abstract: In this paper, three-dimensional multiblade row unsteady Navier–Stokes simulations at a hot streak temperature ratio of 2.0 have been performed to reveal the effects of rotor tip clearance on ...

Abstract: Needle insertion of thin tissues is a crucial procedure in invasive biomedical operations. Reducing the interaction force during needle insertion could yield benefits such as avoiding tissue damage caused by overstretch ...

Abstract: In order to explore the influence of hot streak temperature ratio on the low pressure stage of a vaneless counter-rotating turbine, three-dimensional multiblade row unsteady Navier–Stokes simulations ...

Abstract: This article reports the design, modeling, and experiments of a novel retinal surgery robot based on spatial variable remote center-of-motion (RCM) mechanism. The general design criteria for parallel mechanisms are proposed, ...
