Fiber‐Modified Open‐Graded Friction Courses: Unveiling Enhanced Workability and Durability in Pavements

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures for flexible pavements. ABSTRACT Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures in flexible pavements are known for their efficient drainage characteristics, but concerns exist regarding their structural weaknesses and short lifespans. This study investigates methods to improve the mechanical performance of OGFC

Optimizing Water Flow With Cavitation on the NACA 0009 Hydrofoil Inspired by the Mako Shark Bumps

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The numerical investigation of the water flow with partial cavitation around the NACA 0009 hydrofoil with bumps inspired by the mako shark (biomimicry) was performed. The simulation was done by ANSYS Fluent software for cavitation numbers of 1 and 1.5 at flow speeds of 5 and 10 m/s and various angles of attack from 4° to 12°.
