A Heuristic Transit Network Design Algorithm for Medium Size Towns

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Design of cooling fan for noise reduction using CFD

Cooling fans are one of the main noise sources in pumps. Tonal noise produced at a multiple of the rotational frequency of the fan, the so-called blade passing frequency (BPF) and its higher harmonics generally dominate fan noise. Noise reduction is perhaps one of the most important parameter in pumps. Every noise reduction process starts with identification of noise sources and ranking of soun...

Urea Injection Design Analysis for NOx Control using CFD

There are many industrial pollutants produced from coal fired power generation plants. Recent legislation is pushing to reduce these emissions. Greenhouse gasses as well as nitrous oxides (NOX) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) are the targeted pollutants. Governmental legislation outlined by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through its Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) guideline is a ma...
