Abstract: Numerical simulations of incompressible turbulent flow through rectangular ducts with one side rib-roughened were performed to determine pressure drop. The “PHOENICS” software package was used for ...

Abstract: A new optical technique is developed to determine the size distribution of bubbles in a two-phase flow. Implementation involves passing a narrow beam of light through the bubbly flow and ...

Abstract: The light beam technique, described in Part I of a paper with the same title, was applied to a three-phase system (nitrogen, organic solvents, and glass particles) to study the equilibrium ...

Abstract: In this study, we develop a model for buckling of a partially delaminated composite plate with transverse stitching to resist out of plane deformations. The model applies to carbon fiber/polyimide ...

Abstract: The convergence behavior of finite element models depends on the size of elements used, the element polynomial order, and on the complexity of the applied loads. For high-resolution models of ...
