Abstract: Experiments were performed in a horizontal reduced T-junction using a branch diameter of 6.35 mm and an inlet pipe diameter of 50.8 mm. The inlet length was 1.8 m and three branch orientations ...

Abstract: A model was developed to predict the onset of gas entrainment in a single downward oriented branch. The branch was installed on a horizontal square cross-sectional channel having a smooth ...

Abstract: Advances in volumetric medical imaging techniques allowed the subjectspecific modeling of the bronchial flow through the first few generations of the central airways using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). However, a ...

Abstract: The absorption characteristics and sorptivity of cover concrete obtained by the initial surface absorption test (ISAT), the covercrete absorption test (CAT), and the sorptivity test have been studied and compared. Two types ...

Abstract: Four tests for measuring the surface properties of concrete have been studied: (1) The initial surface absorption test; (2) Figg's air permeation index (Figg) test; (3) the covercrete absorption test (CAT); and (4) the air ...

Abstract: The safe disposal of waste tires has been seen as having a negative impact on the environment. To mitigate this impact, the components of waste tires can be used in the production of green concrete. This study explores the ...
