Investigation of Tethered System for Creating Artificial Gravity
(2018)
Interplanetary journeys are long; taking anywhere between 6 months to a few years. Studies performed with astronauts in the various space missions have provided insights on adverse effects of microgravity on the human body. ...
Blowoff characteristics of partially premixed flames of prevaporized blends of biofuels and petroleum fuels
(2017-12-15)
The laminar partially premixed flames of prevaporized Jet A, canola methyl ester (CME), palm methyl ester (PME), soy methyl ester (SME), and blend flames of Jet A and CME-PME-SME were studied over a range of equivalence ...
Design and Performance Evaluation of a Retractable Wingtip Vortex Reduction Device
(2019-12)
As an airfoil achieves lift, the pressure differential at the wingtips trigger the roll up of fluid which results in swirling wakes. This wake is characterized by the presence of strong rotating cylindrical vortices that ...
Hot Surface Ignition Properties of Pre-Vaporized Jet-A and Biodiesels
(2017-05)
In the search for more environmentally friendly energy sources, biofuels have emerged as an attractive alternative to traditional petroleum fuels. In addition to being close to carbon-neutral and renewable, biofuels have ...
Multi-Material Extrusion Based Additive Manufacturing of Flexible Polymetric Materials
(2024-05-10)
Direct ink writing (DIW) is a 3D printing technique, capable of printing many different polymers that cannot be 3D printed using other methods. Previous DIW attempts at the University of Oklahoma using a modified Ender 3 ...
