Subjects experienced an illusion of self-motion when viewing the randomly patterned inner surface of a cylinder rotating about their main body axis. This sensation of rotation in a direction opposite to the direction of cylinder rotation is known as circular vection. An experiment was conducted to ascertain if the production of circular vection involved a binocular process in the visual system....

2014 Using a simple continuum model for a paramagnetic fluid we analyze a simple shearing flow and parallel flow through a pipe. We also examine the possibility of maintaining a steady circular flow in a circular cylinder by rotating a homogeneous magnetic field.

An experimental study was conduct to suppress the vortex shedding from a circular cylinder by using a suction flow control method. The suction flow control was accomplished using two suction holes located on the test cylinder model at an angle of 90.0 degrees in relation to the oncoming flow direction. In addition to measuring the pressure distributions around the test model, a high-resolution ...

We employ the Airy stress function to derive analytical solutions for plane strain static deformations of a functionally graded (FG) hollow circular cylinder with Young’s modulus E and Poisson’s ratio v taken to be functions of the radius r . For E1 and v1 power law functions of r , and for E1 an exponential but v1 an affine function of r , we derive explicit expressions for stresses and displa...

A numerical study has been carried out for slot air jet impingement cooling of horizontal concentric circular cylinders. The slot air jet is situated at the symmetry line of a horizontal cylinder along the gravity vector and impinges on the bottom of the outer cylinder which is designated as θ=0°. The outer cylinder is partially opened at the top with a width of W=30mm and is kept at constant t...

Abstract—Electromagnetic scattering of two or more incident plane waves has been investigated for a perfect electromagnetic conductor (PEMC) circular cylinder, coated with a metamaterial having negative index of refraction. The incident waves are considered for both the TM and TE cases in the analysis. The scattered fields are calculated by the application of appropriate boundary conditions at ...

We find closed-form solutions for axisymmetric plane strain radial deformations of a functionally graded circular hollow cylinder and radial expansion/contraction of a hollow sphere loaded on inner and outer surfaces by uniform hydrostatic pressures. The cylinder and the sphere are presumed to be made of isotropic and incompressible linear elasticmaterials with the shearmodulus a general functi...

Abstract: The flow generated by a circular cylinder, performing longitudinal and torsional oscillations, in an infinite expanse of a micropolar fluid is studied under the influence of uniform transverse magnetic field. Analytical expressions for the velocity components and micro rotation components are obtained by using no slip and hyper stick conditions on the boundary of the cylinder. The eff...
