This study investigates the inviscid, linear spatio-temporal stability of heated, compressible, and incompressible coaxial jet flows. The influence of the temperature ratio and the velocity ratio between the core jet and the bypass stream on the transition ...
We present local density approximation augmented by the Hubbard-type correction calculations of high-temperature elastic properties of bridgmanite with composition (Mg(1-x)Fex2+)SiO3 for 0
A theory for the microscopic structure and the vibrational properties of soft sphere glass at finite temperature is presented. With an effective potential, derived here, the phase diagram and vibrational properties are worked out around the Maxwell critica ...
The ITER Central Solenoid (CS), positioned in the center of the ITER tokamak, will provide a magnetic field, contributing to the confinement of the plasma. The 13 m high CS consists of a vertical stack of 6 independently driven modules, dynamically activat ...
Recent research showed that the in-plane horizontal displacement capacity of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls depends on numerous factors that are not yet captured by current empirical drift capacity models; e.g., axial stress, shear span, geometry of the ...
This paper discusses the findings of an experimental program that was conducted to investigate the behaviour of extended shear tab beam-to-column and beam-to-girder connections that are commonly used in North America. The laboratory results showed that ext ...
The paper presents the analysis of the effect of Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) occurring during hydraulic transients in pipe coils, in particular the main developments and findings. The research work comprises the development of mathematical models, th ...
This paper evaluates the variability of binder rheology for different ageing levels and the influence of ageing at different testing temperatures. Three different ageing levels were applied on a single type of bitumen with a penetration grade of 70/100.The ...
The response of passing electrons in ion temperature gradient and trapped electron mode microturbulence regimes is investigated in tokamak geometry making use of the flux-tube version of the gyrokinetic code GENE. Results are obtained using two different e ...
The present study demonstrates an alternative approach for describing fluid flow characteristics very close to the wall, using locally resolved convective heat transfer experiments. Heat transfer coefficients on the base surface and around a surface mounted v ...
