Fan Stage Design and Performance Optimization for Low Specific Thrust Turbofans
In modern turbofan engines, the bypass section of the fan stage alone provides the majority of the total thrust required in cruise, and the size of the fan has a considerable effect on the overall engine weight and nacelle drag.

Objectives Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies. To help patients and providers in the decision‐making process, we developed

Study on Applicability of Energy-Saving Devices to Hydrogen Fuel Cell-Powered Ships
The decarbonisation of waterborne transport is arguably the biggest challenge faced by the maritime industry presently. By 2050, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the shipping industry by 50 ...

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

A new propulsion concept for high propulsive hydrodynamic efficiency
A novel marine propulsor concept is presented for high hydrodynamic efficiency. Optimum performance is sought by thrust-producing counter-flapping foils cyclically oscillating along a closed trajectory. The thrusting device exhibits low propulsion loading and low viscous losses.
