Abstract: In this paper, a bird strike against a simple rectangular panel made of five different layups usually used in transparent parts of a rotorcraft is investigated. A new bird model is introduced and its results for impact on ...

Abstract: This paper studies the effects of shaft rub on a rotating system’s vibration response with emphasis on heat generation at the contact point. A 3D heat transfer code, coupled to a 3D vibration ...

Abstract: In common rotary piezoelectric (PZT) frequency up-converting energy harvesters, impact or nonimpact frequency up-conversion technologies are used. For low separation distances between the magnets in nonimpact cases, when ...

Abstract: This paper concerns with calculation of heat transfer and pressure drop in a mixed-convection nanofluid flow on a permeable inclined flat plate. Solution of governing boundary layer equations is presented for some values ...
