Local Heat Transfer Measurements on a Rotating Flat Blade Model with a Single Film Hole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
An experimental study was performed to measure the heat transfer coefficient distributions on a flat blade model under rotating operating conditions. A steady-state thermochromic liquid crystal technique was employed to measure the surface temperature ...

Railway wheel-flat and rail surface defect modelling and analysis by time–frequency techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Damage to the surface of railway wheels and rails commonly occurs in most railways. If not detected, it can result in rapid deterioration and possible failure of rolling stock and infrastructure components causing higher maintenance costs.

Statistical Mechanics of Thin Spherical Shells

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2017
We explore how thermal fluctuations affect the mechanics of thin amorphous spherical shells. In flat membranes with a shear modulus, thermal fluctuations increase the bending rigidity and reduce the in-plane elastic moduli in a scale-dependent fashion ...

Bar-Wave Calibration of Acoustic Emission Sensors

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
This study extended a bar-wave calibration method for acoustic emission (AE) sensors. It combined laser interferometer displacement measurements and the wave propagation medium of a long bar, excited at its end with an ultrasonic transducer driven by a ...
