Effects of process parameters and mold design on resin transfer molded composites.
(2004)
The effects of flow rate and post-fill cure pressure, i.e., packing pressure, on the mechanical properties of resin transfer molded disks are experimentally investigated. Disks are molded at different flow rates and packing ...
High-fidelity modeling and impact footprint prediction for vehicle breakup analysis.
(2005)
Thus the main thrust of this study was to develop and verify the additional dynamics modeling and capabilities for the analysis tool with the objectives to (1) have the capability to predict impact point and footprint, (2) ...
An experimental and numerical study of evaporation enhancement and combustion in porous media.
(2007)
The results showed that the pressure drop across the porous media increased as the coflow air velocity, temperature, and linear pore density of the medium were increased. The measured and predicted surface temperatures of ...
Analysis and control of thermoelastic vibrations in plate structures.
(2001)
This work is concerned with the analysis and control of thermoelastic vibrations in rectangular plate structures using piezoelectric materials for the sensor(s) and actuator(s). Both isotropic and symmetrically laminated, ...
Dynamic behavior of bridge structures under moving loads and masses using differential quadrature method
(2009)
The current study is focused on the dynamic behavior of an idealized highway bridge structure subjected to moving heavy vehicular loads using simplified representative models such as Euler beams and Kirchhoff plates. The ...
Heat transfer and fluid flow in rotating cylinders with a porous sleeve.
(2002)
A finite difference method was employed in part three to obtain the flow and temperature fields in rotating cylinders with a porous sleeve. This configuration is identical to that in the second part, except that the inner ...
An experimental and numerical investigation on hydrogen-hydrocarbon composite fuel combustion.
(2000)
Experimental measurements and numerical predictions show that the local flame temperature increases with the increase of hydrogen content in the mixture; consequently the NO production increases in the flame. On the other ...
A study of directional radiative properties of thermal fire barrier materials.
(2002)
The solution of the RTE is given in terms of the discrete ordinate method taking into consideration the interactions between the foil and the fiber, assuming a linear-anisotropic scattering function for the scattering ...
Shape design optimization of parametric flume sections.
(2006)
This research presents a shape design analysis and optimization methodology for parametric surface flume sections. Flume sections or flow channels have been used widely in many areas such as water chutes in civil and ...
