Numerical investigation of the effects of hydrofoil vibrations on the unsteady behavior of cavitation [PDF]
In order to better understand the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in hydraulic machines, this study aims to numerically investigate the flow around an oscillating hydrofoil with special attention on the effect of unsteadiness on leading edge cavitation.

Abstract The deep‐sea demersal fish fauna is characterized by a prevalence of elongated‐body forms with long tapering tails. Using baited camera landers at depths of 4500–6300 m in the Pacific Ocean, we observed multiple instances of backward swimming using reverse undulation of the slender body in four species: the cutthroat eel Ilyophis robinsae ...

Cloud cavitation on an oscillating hydrofoil [PDF]
Cloud cavitation, often formed by the breakdown of a sheet or vortex cavity, is believed to be responsible for much of the noise and erosion damage that occurs under cavitating conditions.

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins
A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

Abstract Reservoir construction can alter the transport and export of nutrients and organic matter by rivers to coastal areas. However, influences from construction within the first years after flooding are not well understood. Here we present a 9‐year study of La Romaine Hydroelectric Complex, composed of four cascading boreal reservoirs sequentially ...

Recently, the evaluation of vortex-induced vibration has emerged as a significantly important issue owing to the development of high-speed and lightweight ships and submarines. To derive an accurate vortex-induced vibration response, it is essential to consider the fluid-structure interaction. Moreover, it is necessary to evaluate the generation of the

Present study explains the current understanding about the complex evolution of the CITZ. New zircon geochronological data from Mahakoshal Basin is used to document the pre‐suture history of the southern margin of Bundelkhand Craton where Mahakoshal Basin developed as a back‐arc basin and remained open even after 1700 Ma.

Experimental Apparatus for the Study of Oscillating Hydrofoil Energy Generation
Current riverine-based hydropower is expensive and damaging to the local ecosystem. Oscillating hydrofoil turbines, however, are estimated to be much cheaper and offer a lower impact on the local ecosystem.

Wind Turbine Optimization by Blade Element Momentum Method and Particle Swarm Optimization Technique
The aerodynamic efficiency of wind turbines is greatly influenced by the shape of their airfoils. In this study, four airfoils were optimized to enhance the performance of a small horizontal axis wind turbine. The optimization process involved adjusting the thickness and camber of the airfoils using the blade element momentum method and particle swarm ...

This study develops a method of identifying vortices in the impeller channel of the multiphase pump, and reveals the intrinsic connection between the vortices and pressure fluctuations in the main flow passage. These findings offer some suggestions for eliminating the influence of vortices and enhancing the pressurizing capabilities of multiphase pumps.
