Graft Height and Labral Integrity as Key Determinants of Suction Seal Restoration in Hip Labral Augmentation: Findings From an Ovine Model

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: The acetabular labrum plays a critical role in maintaining the hip suction seal, joint stability, and load distribution. When primary repair is not feasible, augmentation is preferred if the chondrolabral junction can be preserved, whereas ...

Unsteady interaction between annulus and turbine rim seal flows

open access: yes, 2012
In core gas turbines relatively cold air is purged through the hub gap between the stator and rotor in order to seal the disk space against flow ingestion from the main annulus.

Prosthetic designs for complete dentures manufactured using contemporary 3D printing techniques: A case series with clinical, design, and laboratory considerations

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in additive manufacturing have enabled the precise fabrication of complete dentures using modern photopolymers and diverse 3D printing techniques. These innovations have transformed removable prosthodontics by allowing clinicians to design and manufacture highly customized prostheses to manage difficult anatomical and esthetic ...

Use of Pressure Measurements to Determine Effectiveness of Turbine Rim Seals

open access: yesVolume 5C: Heat Transfer, 2014
The ingress of hot gas through the rim seal of a gas turbine depends on the pressure difference between the mainstream flow in the turbine annulus and that in the wheel-space radially inward of the rim seal. In this paper, a previously published orifice model is modified so that the sealing effectiveness εc determined from concentration measurements in

Influence of Rim Seal Purge Flow on the Performance of an Endwall-Profiled Axial Turbine

open access: yes, 2010
Nonaxisymmetric endwall profiling is a promising method to reduce secondary losses in axial turbines. However, in high-pressure turbines, a small amount of air is ejected at the hub rim seal to prevent the ingestion of hot gases into the cavity between ...

A geophysical investigation of the Roter Kamm impact crater, Namibia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Roter Kamm impact crater is located in the southern Namib Desert. The crater has a diameter of 2.5 km and belongs to the category of simple, bowl‐shaped impact craters, with an elevated rim of fractured target rock. The crater's interior is completely buried beneath sediments, preventing extensive surface investigations of the bedrock ...

Aerodynamic performance of turbine rim sealing flows

open access: yes, 2020
An investigation of the hot gas ingestion phenomenon in the Oxford Rotor Facility ex- amined rotor disc rotation, mainstream pressure asymmetries and unsteady structures in the cavity as main drivers. The facility underwent major modifications to allow different annulus flow configurations, higher resolution in the low and high bandwidth pressure ...

Interaction of Rim Seal and Annulus Flows in an Axial Flow Turbine

open access: yesVolume 5: Turbo Expo 2003, Parts A and B, 2003
A combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and experimental study of interaction of main gas path and rim sealing flow is reported. The experiments were conducted on a two stage axial turbine and included pressure measurements for the cavity formed between the stage 2 rotor disc and the upstream diaphragm for two values of the diaphragm-to-rotor ...

Nanoscale space weathering features in mature lunar soil revealed by TEM and APT

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Space weathering significantly alters the optical, chemical, and structural properties of lunar regolith at micro‐ and nanoscales; yet detailed nanoscale variability within individual soils remains underexplored. Here we apply transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography to four mineral grains (olivine, ilmenite, and two ...
