Discharge Coefficients of a Heavy Suspension Nozzle
The suspensions used in heavy vehicles often consist of several oil and two gas chambers. In order to perform an analytical study of the mass flow transferred between two gas chambers separated by a nozzle, and when considering the gas as compressible ...

Performance Back-deduction from a Loading to Flow Coefficient Map: Application to Radial Turbine [PDF]
Radial turbine stages are often used for applications requiring off-design operation, as turbocharging for instance. The off-design ability of such stages is commonly analyzed through the traditional turbine map, plotting the reduced mass-flow against ...

Blast mines: physics, injury mechanisms and vehicle protection. [PDF]
Since World War II, more vehicles have been lost to land mines than all other threats combined. Anti-vehicular (AV) mines are capable of disabling a heavy vehicle, or completely destroying a lighter vehicle.
