Abstract: Theoretical and experimental results are presented which demonstrate the mechanical effects of running along a circular turn. The theory is a simple one-parameter model, requiring only the top ...

Abstract: It is theoretically shown that, in the high-stress limit, the exponentially stiffening tendon will have constant strain increment along its length, regardless of changes in cross-sectional area.

Abstract: Specific mass, momentum, and energy flux transport integrals are given by the sequence I1 = ∫erfc(x)dx, I2 = ∫erfc2 (x)dx, and I3 = ∫erfc3 (x)dx for the error function velocity distribution ...

Abstract: A new device, capable of greatly increasing subsonic jet mixing rates, has been discovered. This device, which we have named the “whistler nozzle,” consists of a convergent nozzle section, a ...
