Abstract: Pressure signals obtained through a long skinny instrument line are usually disturbed because of fluid resonance oscillation. Therefore, such a problem is frequently encountered that an unperturbed ...

Abstract: Mechanism of particle separation in a cyclone separator is fully clarified by one-way coupled numerical simulations of large eddy simulation and particle tracking. The former resolves all the important vortical structures, ...

Abstract: As a fundamental study of the squeal of a railway wheel running on a corrugated rail, frictional experiments using a thin steel disk and a rod and analysis were performed. A disk representing ...

Abstract: A binary mixture theory with microstructure is constructed for symmetric angle-ply laminates with orthotropic laminas for wave motion in arbitrary directions. A numerical study of phase-velocity ...

Abstract: The equations which govern the movement of two‐dimensional gradually varied turbidity currents in reservoirs and over beaches are derived and solved numerically. Turbidity currents are sediment‐laden gravity currents that ...

Abstract: The motion of conservative 2D thermals on beds with slope angles θ ranging from 5 to 90° is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Using a large number of experimental data, important flow characteristics, including ...

Abstract: Experiments are conducted in a horizontal laboratory channel with slightly diverging walls to simulate buoyancy driven plunging flow. A temperature difference between inflow and downstream ambient provides the density ...

Abstract: The flow considered herein is a two‐dimensional negatively buoyant flow from a shallow channel over a sloping bottom (mild or steep) into a well‐mixed reservoir. For the analysis, a set of integral equations, in particular ...

Abstract: The behavior of two-dimensional (2D) flood flows and the hydrodynamic force acting on structures are investigated numerically and experimentally. Numerical simulations are performed using a model based on the finite-volume ...
