چکیده

Breaststroke, butterfly, front crawl and back crawl: many of us learnt these swimming styles as kids while splashing around in our local pool. These strokes all involve the swimmer lying on their back or front, much like the way most fish swim. Of course, some people prefer to swim tilted to one side rather than face down even though the side-stroke evokes images of elderly swimmers in bathing caps rather than speed and athletic prowess. However, a new study from a team of international researchers suggests that your grandparents’ sidetilted swimming style may have something in common with a rather different type of sea creature: the great hammerhead shark.

Investigation of Behavior on the Contact Surface of the Tire and Ground by CFD Simulation

Tread design has evolved over the years to achieve the common tread pattern used in current vehicles. However, to meet safety and comfort requirements, tread design considers more than one design factor. Tread design must consider the grip and drainage, and the manner in which to reduce rolling noise, which is one of the main factors considered by manufacturers. The main objective of this study...

Evaluation of thermal stress analysis and fracture mechanics evaluation of wheel for high-speed train due to the failure of tread cleaner

Safety of the wheels for high-speed train was investigated when the tread cleaner, which play a role in the increase of adhesion and the removal of dirt, is failed and stuck in wheel tread. The present study was performed on the basis of analyses of a combination of mechanical and thermal load due to the failure of tread cleaner during severe conditions. The finite element method was used to an...

بررسی سرعت انتشار کمانش دینامیکی در خطوط لوله دریائی

A pipeline is considered as shell structure so its design is based on stability concepts due to the exerted high pressure, local instability is probable to occur and so prevention of its occurrence and propagation are important subjects in its design. In this paper, dynamic buckle propagation has been modeled by 3D finite element method, results are verified with experimental tests and velocity...
