Abstract: This paper presents numerical simulation results of the primary atomization of a turbulent liquid jet injected into a gaseous crossflow. Simulations are performed using the balanced force refined ...

Abstract: Since early 2020, COVID-19 has had devastating and ongoing health and economic impacts worldwide. The construction industry has not been immune to these impacts. Although construction was generally deemed essential, in ...

Abstract: Considered is a plane crack in a homogeneous, static stress field. The component of the Ji integral normal to the plane of the crack (J2 ) is shown not to be path-independent in the sense ...

Abstract: The plane motion of a cantilevered pipe conveying fluid is examined when the flow velocity is in the neighborhood of that generating flutter. In contrast to previous studies, the flow velocity ...

Abstract: The dynamic fracture response of a long beam of brittle material subjected to pure bending is studied. If the magnitude of the applied bending moment is increased quasi-statically to a critical ...

Abstract: Elastic wave propagation in plane strain in a periodically layered half space is considered, with the layering parallel to the bounding traction-free plane. Attention is focused on surface waves ...

Abstract: General noise reduction considerations for shipboard installation of gas turbines are discussed. Specific information relating to sound-absorption materials, duct treatments, structureborne sound ...

Abstract: One of the factors influencing the efficiency of modern electrostatic precipitators is the proper cleaning of dust collecting plates, which is usually done by a periodic rapping. The rapping ...

Abstract: It is the purpose of the present paper to establish conservation laws for time-independent and time-dependent thermoelasticity in two dimensions via the NA method. Due to the analogy between ...
