Effect of initial conditions on the convergence rate of the energy equation in Couette flow

Creator:: Seddigh, Foad
Abstract:: Computers are very efficient in handling the problems which deal with iteration. Numerical treatment of the unsteady energy equation is one sort of iteration. The convergence of the unsteady film coefficient, in two dimensional space, to its steady state value has been deduced by comparison of the results of the...

Human gait analysis by gait pattern measurement and forward dynamic model combined with non linear feedback control

Creator:: Ko, Seung-uk
Abstract:: Normal gait of human is believed to be an adapted motor control result of optimal behavior of individual. Normal gait would be altered by aging or injury without being perceived. Subtle changes in gait which is not easy to detect, can cause many serious problems including joint pains and even...

A relationship between wave dispersion and fracture strength for a composite material

Creator:: Ilcewicz, Larry Bert
Abstract:: Wave dispersion and fracture are phenomena that involve. mechanisms triggered at the scale of a material's internal structure. Experiments were performed with a candidate material to judge the hypothesis that wave dispersion measurements can be used to nondestructively predict fracture strength. Wood-based particleboard was chosen as the candidate material because...

Linearized model for wind turbines in yaw

Creator:: Chaiyapinunt, Somsak
Abstract:: The analysis of rigid hub, three-bladed horizontal-axis, axisymmetric wind turbines in yaw is made using a linearized, four-degree-of-freedom model. The linearized equations of motion of rotor and nacelle are developed using quasi-steady blade element theory and Lagrange's equations. The yaw behavior of the system is studied from coefficients of the...

Solution of unsteady, two-dimensional, inviscid flows

Creator:: Kuo, Ying-Ming
Abstract:: The general theory of characteristics is reviewed for hyperbolic partial differential equations of n independent variables. The application of the theory of characteristics is made to unsteady, two-dimensional, rotational, inviscid flows; unsteady, two-dimensional, irrotational, inviscid flows; and unsteady, axial symmetric, inviscid flows. The characteristic surfaces and the compatibility relations are...

Wind tunnel simulation and field measurements of flow over a coastal headland

Creator:: Brownlow, Roger West
Abstract:: An experimental study was made of the average and turbulent wind characteristics of the flow over a model of a coastal headland. The scale of the model was 300:1, corresponding to a prototype size of 500 m. The data for validation of the model study was obtained from instruments mounted...

Calculation of the pressure distribution on a pitching airfoil with application to the Darrieus Rotor

Creator:: Ghodoosian, Nader
Abstract:: An analytical model leading to the pressure distribution on the cross section of a Darrieus Rotor Blade (airfoil) was constructed. The model was based on the inviscid flow theory and the contribution of the nonsteady wake vortices was neglected. The analytical model was translated into a computer code in order...

Turbulence induced loads on a teetered rotor

Creator:: Weber, Timothy L.
Abstract:: Development of variable speed horizontal axis wind turbines has resulted in a need for an analysis code with a rotor speed degree-of-freedom. This study develops a five degree-of-freedom time domain computer code that evaluates blade and rotor, mean and cyclic loads with nonlinear aerodynamics together with atmospheric turbulence as a...
