Optimization of Structural Parameters and Cavitation Suppression in Control Valves Based on P-WOA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
A control valve is a critical component in water supply systems, controlling pressure, flow, and direction. However, cavitation, caused by low pressure in the valve cavity, disrupts flow and leads to cavitation damage, vibration, and noise, affecting ...

Prandtl–Batchelor flow past a flat plate with a forward-facing flap [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Two-dimensional steady inviscid flow past an inclined flat plate with a forward-facing flap attached to the rear edge is considered for the case when a vortex sheet separates from the leading edge of the flat plate and reattaches at the leading edge of ...

Formal and non-formal approaches to the notion of "Risk" : a historical perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The paper will focus on the early texts of Galileo Galilei (1613~1623) and Daniel Bernoulli (1738) as examples of pure combinatorical analysis and perspectively considerations within the mathematical discipline of probability theory.

Unsteady Flow in Cavitating Turbopumps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Unsteady flow in a cavitating axial inducer pump is analyzed with the help of a simple two-dimensional cascade model. This problem was motivated by a desire to study the effect of unsteady cavitation on the so-called POGO instability in the operation of ...

Super‐Convergent Meshless Computations for Active Vibration Control of Bi‐Directional Functionally Graded Terfenol‐D Beams with Twisted Geometry

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
This study develops a superconvergent meshless method to analyze and control vibrations in twisted, bidirectional functionally graded Terfenol‐D beams. By optimizing magnetostrictive patch placement, it demonstrates effective vibration suppression under dynamic loads, highlighting the design potential of strategically graded materials in complex ...
