Investment casting has been an important form of metal casting
for many years, but little is understood about the fluid flows that
occur during mold filling. A key to quality castings is the

In the event of a small break loss of coolant accident
(SBLOCA) in a nuclear reactor, cold fluid is injected through
the reactor system high pressure injector to compensate for
the coolant loss. When this flow rate is less than a critical
value, however, the hot fluid in the cold...
Two types of boundary element models are developed for the interaction of waves with trenches. The first type is for a two-dimensional domain in the horizontal plane and employs the linear long wave approximations. It is shown that appropriate selection of pit geometries leads to a significant reduction in wave...
