Choking and Performance 1 Running Head: CHOKING AND EXCELLING Choking and Excelling Under Pressure

Decrements in performance on cognitive tasks resulting from pressure to perform (i.e., choking) are thought to be caused by interference with the ability to use explicit strategies (the distraction theory). This view suggests that pressure should improve tasks for which explicit strategies hamper performance. This hypothesis was tested by giving participants one of two nearly identical learning...

Investigation the effects of injection pressure and compressibility and nozzle entry in diesel injector nozzle’s flow

Investigating nozzle’s orifice flow is challenging both experimentally and theoretically. This paper focuses on simulating flow inside diesel injector nozzle via Ansys fluent v15. Validation is performed with experimental results from Winkhofler et al (2001). Several important parameters such as mass flow rate, velocity profiles and pressure profiles are used for this validation. Results includ...
