An estimation method of full scale performance for pulling type podded propellers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014
: This paper presents a new estimation method of full scale propulsive performance for the pulling type podded propeller. In order to estimate the drag of pod housing, a drag velocity ratio, which includes the effects of podded propeller loading and ...

Equilibrium Distribution of Heavy Quarks in Fokker-Planck Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We obtain within Fokker-Planck dynamics an explicit generalization of Einstein's relation between drag, diffusion and equilibrium distribution for a spatially homogeneous system, considering both the transverse and longitudinal diffusion for dimension n ...

Comparison of the Effectiveness of Drag Reduction Devices on a Simplified Truck Model through Numerical Simulation

open access: yesModelling, 2022
The aerodynamic efficiency of trucks is very low because of their non-streamlined box shape, which is subject to practical constraints, leaving little room for improvement in terms of aerodynamic efficiency.

Theoretical analysis of drag resistance in amorphous thin films exhibiting superconductor-insulator transitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The magnetical field tuned superconductor-insulator transition in amorphous thin films, e.g., Ta and InO, exhibits a range of yet unexplained curious phenomena, such as a putative low-resistance metallic phase intervening the superconducting and the ...

Drag Analysis of Three Rudder-Shaped Like Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research in Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Sciences, 2020
This paper presents an investigation of Rudder Shaped-Like (RSL) hull configurations with low-drag characteristic using the resistance model tests and numerical analysis. The new design of the floating platform using three hulls with a self-manoeuvring system as Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) and capable of collecting the same data as a hydrography ...

Spin Hall Drag [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We predict a new effect in electronic bilayers: the {\it Spin Hall Drag}. The effect consists in the generation of spin accumulation across one layer by an electric current along the other layer.

Aerodynamic Drag Analysis of Superpressure and Zero Pressure Balloons using Large Eddy Simulations (LES) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
Stratospheric balloons are an essential part of the scientific research community. In previous stratospheric balloon models used for trajectory prediction and station-keeping, the aerodynamic drag has usually been modeled as similar to that of a sphere ...

On-site drag analysis of drafting cyclists

open access: yesJournal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2021
The aerodynamic drag of a trailing cyclists in a tandem formation is investigated at different lateral and longitudinal separations. A Ring of Fire (RoF) experiment is conducted at the Tom Dumoulin bike park of Sittard-Geleen in the Netherlands. The method is based on stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (Stereo-PIV) measurements followed by ...

A novel approach to calculating induced drag from computational fluid dynamics

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Early aerodynamic mathematical methods rely on potential flow concepts that formally isolate aerodynamic drag into a profile and an induced drag component.
