Numerical and experimental investigation of spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Elia Iseli

Small-scale turbomachinery is increasingly used in carbon-free energy conversion systems, such as commercial or domestic scale heat pumps, fuels cells for transportation and waste heat recovery. The usage of aerodynamic bearings allows the design of compac ...

The dynamics and timescales of static stall

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest, Julien Dominique Claude Deparday

Airfoil stall plays a central role in the design of safe and efficient lifting surfaces. We typically distinguish between static and dynamic stall based on the unsteady rate of change of an airfoil’s angle of attack. Despite the somewhat misleading denotat ...

Analysis of Pitot tube Airflow Velocity Sensor Behavior in Blockage Situations

Ata Jedari Golparvar

Several airplanes crashes throughout the past decades are linked to the failure of the airplane flow velocity sensor known as pitot device or pitot tube. The study of its behavior in blockage, either due to human errors or due to environmental factors, cou ...

Physical Mechanism and Flow Control of Tip Vortex Cavitation

Ali Amini

Occurrence of cavitation in hydraulic machines is a challenging issue because it is often accompanied with loss of efficiency, noise emissions, vibrations, and erosion damages. Tip vortices, in particular, are an ideal site for the development of cavitatio ...

Time-Continuous Phosphorus Flows in the Indian Agri-Food Sector: Long-Term Drivers and Management Options

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Phosphorus (P) is a major agricultural nutrient and, in its mineable form, a potentially scarce resource. Countries with limited physical access to P should hence develop an effective national P governance. This requires analyses of trends and variations i ...

A new bioinspired method for pressure and flow sensing based on the underwater air-retaining surface of the backswimmer Notonecta

Goran Lovric

In technical systems, static pressure and pressure changes are usually measured with piezoelectric materials or solid membranes. In this paper, we suggest a new biomimetic principle based on thin air layers that can be used to measure underwater pressure c ...

Cl-35 dynamic nuclear polarization solid-state NMR of active pharmaceutical ingredients

David Lyndon Emsley, Aaron James Rossini

In this work, we show how to obtain efficient dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enhanced Cl-35 solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectra at 9.4 T and demonstrate how they can be used to characterize the molecular-level structure of hydrochloride salts of active pha ...

Investigation of Nanosecond Pulse Dielectric Barrier Discharges in Still Air and in Transonic Flow by Optical Methods

Peter Ott, Pénélope Leyland, Philip Peschke, Sami Goekce

In the present study the interaction of nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge (ns-DBD) actuators with aerodynamic flow up to transonic velocities was investigated. The primary focus was on the influence of the flow on the discharge and the effects ...

Compact and Efficient UC Commitments under Atomic-Exchanges

Serge Vaudenay

We devise a multiple (concurrent) commitment scheme operating on large messages. It uses an ideal global setup functionality in a minimalistic way. The commitment phase is non-interactive. It is presented in a modular way so that the internal building bloc ...
