An Analytical Model of the Power Law Distributions in the Complex Network
(2012-08)
It is known that complex networks in nature exhibit some significant statistical features. We notice power law distributions
which frequently emerge with respect to network structures of various quantities. One example ...
Numerical Investigation of Flow Structure Interaction Coupling Effects in Hard Disk Drives
(2012-02)
This paper studies the flow structural interaction (FSI) within a hard disk drive (HDD) through the use of a novel coupling
method. The interaction studied was the fluid induced vibration in the HDD. A two step coupling ...
The Mesoscopic Constitutive Equations for Polymeric Fluids and Some Examples of Viscometric Flows
(2012-02)
Constitutive equations for melts and concentrated solutions of linear polymers are derived as consequences of dynamics
of a separate macromolecule. The model is investigated for viscometric flows. It was shown that the ...
A Fatigue Analysis of a Hydraulic Francis Turbine Runner
(2012-02)
In this work, the estimation of crack initiation life of a hydraulic Francis turbine runner is presented. The life prediction
is based on the local strain approach to predict the initiation life. First, the analysis is ...
Effects of Orbital Motion on the Boundary Layer Flow on a Spinning Disk
(Scientific Research, 2012-12)
The objective of this study is to experimentally examine the effects of orbital motion on the boundary layer flow on a spinning disk. The boundary layer flow on the disk is visualized by the oil flow method, and velocity ...
Some New Results on Prime Graphs
(Scientific Research, 2012-07)
We investigate prime labeling for some graphs resulted by identifying any two vertices of some graphs. We also introduce the concept of strongly prime graph and prove that the graphs Cn, Pn, and K1,n are strongly prime ...
Mazumder Effect of Liquid and Gas Velocities on Magnitude and Location of Maximum Erosion in U-Bend
(Scientific Research, 2012-06)
Solid particle erosion is a micromechanical process that is influenced by flow geometry, material of the impacting surface, impact angle, particle size and shape, particle velocity, flow condition and fluid properties. ...
Comparative Analysis of Velocity Decomposition Methods for Internal Combustion Engines
(Scientific Research, 2012-09)
Different signal processing technique performances are compared to each other with regard to separating the mean and fluctuating velocity components of a simulated one-dimensional unsteady velocity signal comparable to ...
Modeling Evaporating Droplets in Complex Unsteady Flows
(Scientific Research, 2012-06)
In many applications, a moving fluid carries a suspension of droplets of a second phase which may change in size due to evaporation or condensation. Examples include liquid fuel drops in engines and raindrops or ice-crystals ...
A Computational Study of the Gas-Solid Suspension Flow through a Supersonic Nozzle
(Scientific Research, 2012-12)
The present study focuses on numerical simulation of the gas-solid suspension flow in a supersonic nozzle. The Euler- Lagrange approach using a Discrete Phase Model (DPM) has been used to solve the compressible Navier-Stokes ...
