Abstract: A novel scaling law for the tip vortex cavitation (TVC) noise was determined, employing the Rankine vortex model, the Rayleigh–Plesset equation, the lifting surface theory, the boundary layer effect, and the number of ...

Abstract: Research in seismic numerical modeling of liquid‐storage tanks has been concentrated on tanks with single curvature, such as cylindrical tanks. This paper outlines the development of a numerical model for the seismic ...

Abstract: In this paper, a subframe type fuel tank module was proposed and evaluated to increase the vehicle safety and the design flexibility against rear crash of automotive vehicles. In order to ...

Abstract: This study presents a method for estimating construction costs, even when dealing with limited and unreliable data, to enhance decision-making in the early project stages. Owners, particularly in green building projects, ...

Abstract: The paper investigates the effects of the dimensionless number flooding number that can exactly predict the flooding phenomenon in the cathode channel. Experiments were carried out at 0, 50, and 90% relative humidity and ...

Abstract: The electric field applied in dielectric fluids causes an imbalance in the dissociation-recombination reaction generating free space charges. The generated charges are redistributed by the applied ...

Abstract: The main goals of this study are to provide an improved interpretation of flexural vibration modes of delaminations in concrete bridge decks detected using impact-echo testing, and to develop a simple two-dimensional (2D) ...

Abstract: Economizers modulate outside air intake to minimize/eliminate mechanical cooling in air-handling units when outside air enthalpy is lower than the return air enthalpy. A theoretical study is conducted to developed analytical ...
