In many practical engineering situations, a source of vibrations may excite a large and flexible structure such as a ship’s deck, an aeroplane fuselage, a satellite antenna, a wall panel. To avoid transmission of the ...

The vessel wall of densely packed beds exert a strong influence on particle distribution that generates a radial porosity profile and, in turn, a radial profile of axial velocity. A direct consequence is the appearance of ...

Radial diffusers have been used as valve model to determine effective force area and discharge coefficient of the flow. A comprehensive data set of these parameters is lacking in the literature. Here, we present numerical ...

O presente trabalho refere-se à investigação experimental e numérica do escoamento em difusores radiais, que são usados como modelos de representação de sistemas de válvulas de compressores de refrigeração. Uma bancada ...

In the pipe jacking design, it is required the estimation of radial and tangential pressures exerted by soil on pipes, to determine the jacking forces that need to be achieve to overcome the frictional resistance during ...

We explored possible effects of negative covariation among finger forces in multifinger accurate force production tasks on the classical Fitts's speed-accuracy trade-off. Healthy subjects performed cyclic force changes ...

The radial diffuser has been used as a basic geometry to study several mechanical devices like thrust bearings, aerosol impactors, artificial heart valves, and refrigeration compressor valves. Experimental results for the ...
