The continuous pressure drop in the pressurized irrigation system is an extremely important factor that must be taken into account when designing hydraulics. For your estimation to be performed correctly, you need precise ...

The Darcy-Weisbach equation is the most recommended equation for determining the pressure loss in pressurized pipes because of its wide applicability. However, one of the largest obstacles to implementing this equation is ...

The soil surface roughness is a main factor in all wind erosion prediction models, including the Revised Wind Erosion Equation (RWEQ). The objective of this study was to test the erodibility of two typical soils of the ...

This study evaluated the effect of the surface roughness parameters on the flexural strength of Yttria-partially stabilized zirconia, Y-TZP ceramics: ZrO2 (3 mol%) or ZrO2 (5 mol%), as function of different surface finishing ...

The fast development of prototyping technologies allowed the optimization of engineering projects in several areas. On this paper was used methods to achieve an absolute value for the average superficial roughness parameter ...

We study the mixing dynamics of a dyed and a clear miscible fluid by an oscillating flow inside an Hele-Shaw cell with randomly distributed circular obstacles. A transparent setup allows us to analyze the distribution of ...

The effect of the pulse current, pulse on time and pulse off time on the surface roughness of AISI 304 stainless steel workpieces produced by electric discharge machining (EDM) using grade GSP-70 graphite electrodes was ...

The importance in the design process of a structure that transports water it’s essential to maintain a threshold that avoids deterioration, weathering, material dragging and structural damage; that is, optimum conditions ...
