Investigation of the Effect of Number of Longitudinal Rounded Grooves on Hydrodynamic Forces acting on Cylinders in Cross Flow at Re=10⁵ [PDF]
Crossflow over cylindrical structures has been extensively studied by both academia and industry in various fields. It is responsible for in-line and transverse vibrations of marine risers. Flow-induced structural vibrations may end up with the failure

Influence of a rough surface on the aerodynamic characteristics of a rotating cylinder
The article considers the influence of the relative roughness of a cylindrical blade on aerodynamic characteristics. It is known that the operation basis of blades under consideration is the Magnus effect, which is characterized by appearance of a ...

Absence of Zeros and Asymptotic Error Estimates for Airy and Parabolic Cylinder Functions [PDF]
We derive WKB approximations for a class of Airy and parabolic cylinder functions in the complex plane, including quantitative error bounds. We prove that all zeros of the Airy function lie on a ray in the complex plane, and that the parabolic cylinder ...

TRIBOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF WATER HYDRAULICS [PDF]
A clean and healthy environment must be an increasing priority. Different kinds of hydraulic fluids are in use nowadays. Unfortunately, the majority of them are harmful. The use of tap water as a hydraulicpressure medium is one of the possible solutions.
