Theoretical Investigations on Tribological Properties of Air Foil Thrust Bearings during Start-Up Process

open access: yesLubricants, 2023
During the start-up process, air foil thrust bearings (AFTBs) come into contact and are prone to localized overheating and even failure. Frequent starts and stops are the major sources of wear.

The influence of vegetation structure on lift-off velocity of diaspores during secondary wind dispersal

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Lift-off velocity, the wind speed at which a diaspore starts moving during secondary wind dispersal, representing diaspore mobile capacity, may greatly depend on vegetation where dispersal takes place.

Structural and CFD analyses of a reciprocating-airfoil (RA) driven UAV wing under maximum lift and inertia forces

open access: yesDrone Systems and Applications, 2022
The reciprocating-airfoil (RA) driven vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft is a new aircraft concept that utilizes the reciprocating motion of the wings to provide lift for take-off and landing.

Wind tunnel AVERT model [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin, 2009
The AVERT project aims to asses the oscillatory blowing on the flap for a high-lift configuration (wing with flap), and involves both experimental (low speed wind tunnel INCAS) and numerical activities.At low speed the active flow control may lead to a ...

Fabrication method of GaN template for high-speed chemical lift-off

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
In this study, a gallium nitride (GaN) template fabrication method for efficient chemical lift-off (CLO) is developed. CLO is slower than other lift-off methods. An air tunnel structure is formed using a photoresist to reduce the process time and improve
