On the limiting parameters of artificial cavitation applied to reduce drag [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Artificial cavitation, or ventilation, is produced by releasing gas into liquid flow. One objective of creating such a multiphase flow is to reduce frictional and sometimes wave resistance of a marine vehicle completely or partially immersed in the ...

Mitigation of infusion and cure‐induced defects for thick thermosetting composites: Current challenges and future trends

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 46, Issue S1, Page S9-S25, 10 September 2025.
Typical manufacturing defects and mitigation strategies in thick thermosetting composites. Abstract The composite part industry is currently dominated by thin‐section geometries. However, thick composites gain interest in many applications where monolithic parts are required, such as foils, wind mill root blades, and so forth.

A Multi‐Task ConvoBiLSTM Model With Self‐Attention for Concurrent Forecasting of Traffic Accident Risk and Severity

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This study introduces a multi‐task deep learning framework that simultaneously forecasts both traffic accident risk and severity. By integrating convolutional neural networks, Bidirectional long short‐term memory (BiLSTM) units, and self‐attention mechanisms, the model captures complex spatiotemporal dependencies and improves predictive accuracy ...

Flow and air-entrainment around partially submerged vertical cylinders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this study, a partially submerged vertical cylinder is moved at constant velocity through water, which is initially at rest. During the motion, the wake behind the cylinder induces free-surface deformation. Eleven cylinders, with diameters from $D=1.4$

Wind Turbine Optimization by Blade Element Momentum Method and Particle Swarm Optimization Technique

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The aerodynamic efficiency of wind turbines is greatly influenced by the shape of their airfoils. In this study, four airfoils were optimized to enhance the performance of a small horizontal axis wind turbine. The optimization process involved adjusting the thickness and camber of the airfoils using the blade element momentum method and particle swarm ...

Experimental Investigation of the Yaw Misalignment Effect on the Power Performance and System Loading of a Flapping‐Foil Hydrokinetic Turbine

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 12, Issue 12, Page 5555-5565, December 2024.
Turbine attached to the train structure of the water‐circulating tunnel. ABSTRACT Hydrokinetic turbines (HTs) extract power by utilizing hydrodynamic forces from flow energy. The surplus load not used for power generation acts as a system load and must be considered when designing the turbine.

Control of a flexible, surface-piercing hydrofoil for high-speed, small-scale applications [PDF]

open access: yes2017 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2017
In recent years, hydrofoils have become ubiquitous and critical components of high-performance surface vehicles. Twenty-meter-long hydrofoil sailing craft are capable of reaching speeds in excess of 45 knots. Hydrofoil dinghies routinely travel faster than the wind and reach speeds up to 30 knots.
