Abstract: The lateral earth pressure on a rigid retaining wall with different movement modes, of translation, rotation about the top with translation, and rotation about the base with translation, is investigated analytically in ...

Abstract: Abstract. Film cooling is widely employed to protect the external wall of the turbine blade leading edge from hot gas exposure, while impingement cooling is a common internal cooling technique. This article experimentally ...

Abstract: In the serpentine passage of actual rotor blades, the coolant at the inlet of the film hole has an internal crossflow. The internal crossflow significantly influences the film cooling effectiveness of multi-row film holes. ...
