Analysis of Windage Losses and Velocity Distribution for a Shrouded Rotating Disk [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 1: Turbomachinery, 1987
An analysis of experimental results was carried out, establishing a direct correlation between measured velocity profiles and windage losses for a rotating disk inside a shrouded stator as typically found in turbomachinery. The analysis gives information on the regions of the rotating and static parts, which have a dominant effect upon ...

Resolving Convective‐Scale Cloud and Precipitation Structures in Tropical Cyclone Rainbands With Novel Raman Lidar Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Low‐level clouds in the tropical cyclone (TC) rainbands modulate the radial inflow of warm, moist boundary layer air, which can impact TC intensity. Yet, precisely measuring rainband cloud boundaries with existing remote sensing techniques remains a challenge.

Transient Hydrodynamic Characteristics of a High-Speed Axial Flow Water-Jet Pump during Variable Speed Process

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
To investigate the transient characteristics of high-speed axial flow water-jet pumps during start-up and emergency acceleration as well as to analyze how different accelerations affect the performance of internal flow, the k–ω turbulence model of the ...

Grazing Enhances System Carbon Balance via the Soil‐Plant‐Livestock Carbon Pump Regulation Despite Suppressing Specific Carbon Cycling Pathways

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Grazing is among the most direct and effective strategies for anthropogenic regulation of carbon cycling in global grasslands. Through a 24‐year grazing experiment, we propose a conceptual framework of the “Soil‐Plant‐Livestock Carbon Pump” to elucidate the mechanisms underlying grazing effects on carbon cycling within plant, soil, livestock ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of a Novel Vortex Reducer in a Co-Rotating Cavity of Aeroengines

open access: yesAerospace
Improving airflow pressure is of great significance for the cooling and sealing of aeroengines. In a co-rotating cavity with radial inflow, vortex reducers are used to decrease the pressure drop. However, the performance of traditional vortex reducers is

Computational study on the aerodynamics of a long-shrouded contra-rotating rotor in hover [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Micro Air Vehicles, 2019
This paper aims to investigate the aerodynamics including the global performance and flow characteristics of a long-shrouded contra-rotating rotor by developing a full 3D RANS computation. Through validations by current experiments on the same shrouded contra-rotating rotor, the computation using sliding mesh method and the computational zone with an ...

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 480-493, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

Aspects of plane waves and Taub-NUT as exact string theory solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This thesis is a study of some aspects of string theory solutions that are exact in the inverse string tension ɑ', and thus are valid beyond the low-energy limit.
