2-Stroke Scavenging in Conventional and Minimally-Modified 4-Stroke Engines for Heavy Duty Applications at Low to Medium Speeds

open access: yesInventions, 2019
The transformation of a standard 4-stroke cylinder head into a torque-improved and gradually more efficient 2-stroke design is discussed. The concept with an effective loop scavenging via an extended inlet valve holds promise for engines at low- to ...

Study on quasi-isothermal expansion process of compressed air based on spray heat transfer

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
The piston expander with compressed air as working medium has been widely studied for its advantages of cleanliness, reliability and safety, but its application is limited by low exhaust temperature and low output power/efficiency.

The lifetime forecasting of machine elements by fatigue strength criterion

open access: yesDiagnostyka, 2021
The method for assessing the lifetime of structural elements by the criterion of fatigue strength is improved. It includes tests of laboratory material samples, the positions of the statistical theory of similarity of fatigue failure, calculation of the ...

Momentum of the Electromagnetic Field in Transparent Dielectric Media

open access: yes, 2012
We present arguments in favor of the proposition that the momentum of light inside a transparent dielectric medium is the arithmetic average of the Minkowski and Abraham momenta.

Low‐Cost, Large‐Scale Nanoporous Metals by Mechanical Alloying, Oxide Reduction, and Dealloying of Powders

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Powder metal processing provides scalable advantages in nanoporous (np) metal development. Mechanical alloying is used to produce unique precursors for hybrid nanopore formation by oxide reduction and dealloying. As demonstrated in np Ag, this approach improves process efficiency while promoting smaller ligaments and larger pores, both of which are ...

Innovative Processing of Compacted Waste Aluminum Alloy Powders via Controlled Remelting and Solidification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

The correction factor of Monterey No. 0/30 sample with fines content liquefaction resistance between cyclic triaxial and cyclic hollow cylinder tests

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Soil liquefaction is one of the most detrimental forms of earthquake-induced ground failure that can result in catastrophic damage to engineering structures.

Calculus and Materials for Stirling Engines Bolter and Regenator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The performances of the Stirling engine are affected by the convection coefficient and the ldquoXrdquo factor and not only by the variation of the gas quantity from the cylinder with the medium pressure variation.

Non-equilibrium dissociating nitrogen flow over spheres and circular cylinders [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
Theoretical results based on the methods of Freeman and Garr & Marrone show that the stand-off distance and flow pattern of non-equilibrium dissociating flow of nitrogen over the front part of a blunt body can be correlated in terms of a single reaction ...
