Aerodynamics of a double-element wing in ground effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A study was performed of a cambered, double-element, high-lift wing operating in ground effect. The effect of ground proximity and flap setting has been quantified in terms of aerodynamic performance and off-surface flowfield characteristics ...

The effect of military load carriage on ground reaction forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Load carriage is an inevitable part of military life both during training and operations. Loads carried are frequently as high as 60% bodyweight, and this increases injury risk. In the military, load is carried in a backpack (also referred to as a Bergen)

Aircraft Wake-Vortex Evolution in Ground Proximity: Analysis and Parameterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Field measurement data of 282 wake vortex pairs and respective environmental conditions acquired at Frankfurt Airport by means of lidar, Sodar/RASS, and ultrasonic anemometer are used to analyze wake vortex behavior in ground proximity. Exceptional cases

Wake behind a Compound Wing in Ground Effect

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Flow structure is a crucial point for the conceptual design of Wing-in-Ground effect (WIG) crafts. In this study, pressure distributions around a compound wing, velocity and the turbulent intensity distribution in the wake area after trailing of the wing,

Analysis of the performance and kinematics of the movement of UAV [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2023
The use of drones today has become an integral part of modern life to the extent that the level of drone utilization determines the quality of life. The expansion of drone applications has grown exponentially.

Dimensional response analysis of bilinear systems subjected to non-pulselike earthquake ground motions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The maximum inelastic response of bilinear single-degree-of-freedom systems when subjected to ground motions without distinguishable pulses is revisited with dimensional analysis by identifying time scales and length scales in the time histories of ...

Aerodynamic measurement of a track runner using a wind-tunnel moving-belt system

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
Concerning most of track-and-field athletics such as the marathon, it is important to clarify the flow around track runners and to evaluate their air resistances (or wind resistances, drags).

Ground spider communities in experimentally disturbed Mediterranean woodland habitats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The protected Mediterranean woodland habitats in Israel are undergoing tree encroachment, resulting in loss of open patches with herbaceous vegetation. We suggested that this process results in a ground spider community dominated by shade-loving species.
