A flexible plate vertically clamped at the free-end leading edge was used to modulate aerodynamic forces on a wall-mounted finite square cylinder. The side width (d) of cylinder 40 mm and aspect ratio (H/d) 5. made low-density polyethylene, with d thickness 0.04 mm. length ranged from d/8 d. All measurements were carried out in low-speed wind tunnel free-stream velocity (U?) ranging 4 20 m/s, c...

A simple model of the magnetoelectric (ME) effect in cylindrical layered composites is presented. The cylinder is replaced by the effective layered plate structure with effective length, Leff , thickness t and height h. In the axial coupling mode, the effective magnetic field acts along the length direction (Leff ). However, in the vertical coupling mode, the effective magnetic fields act in tw...

We employ the Eshelby–Stroh formalism to study generalized plane strain infinitesimal deformations caused due to the indentation by a rigid circular cylinder of an elastic laminated plate with a throughthe-width rectangular void between two adjoining layers. Assuming that the void does not close during the indentation process, we find the indentation modulus (i.e., the slope of the indentation ...

This paper focuses on the mathematical modeling of axial piston pump through dividing the failure development of friction pair into lubrication, mixed lubrication and abrasion. Directing to the wedge-shaped oil film between cylinder block and valve plate, the support force distribution under the temperature variance was obtained. Considering the rough peak of valve plate, the contact load model...

Axial piston machines are widely used in both stationary and mobile hydraulic systems due to their efficiency robustness high pressure applications. Important tribological contacts axial between pistons bushings, sliding shoe swash plate, as well cylinder block valve plate. The analysis of these is imperative improve the overall performance machine, since they influence its a extend. This paper...

This paper presents the implementation of an adaptive smoothed particle hydrodynamics (ASPH) method for high strain Lagrangian hydrodynamics with material strength. In ASPH, the isotropic kernel in the standard SPH is replaced with an anisotropic kernel whose axes evolve automatically to follow the mean particle spacing as it varies in time, space, and direction around each particle. Except for...

Current panel methods for wave-structure interactions employ the potential flow theory, which provide fast, reliable and relatively accurate predictions marine structures, now some open source packages, NEMOH HAMS, are available. In this research, relative utility performance of HAMS is compared with well-known, state-of-art software, WAMIT. To bring focus to these comparisons, research based o...

Whole mount in situ hybridisation was used to study the embryonic expression of the mouse HMG box-containing genes Sox1, Sox2 and Sox3 between 6.5 and 9.0 days post coitum (dpc). Sox2 and Sox3 are expressed in the epiblast and extraembryonic ectoderm of the egg cylinder, becoming restricted to the prospective neural plate and chorion at the onset of gastrulation. Sox3 is upregulated in the post...
