Demo 13-02 Flettner Rotor

open access: yes, 2001
A Flettner rotor uses the Magnus effect to create a force on a rotating drum in an external air stream. In this case, shown in Figure 1, wind created by a fan passes across the rotor from the top to the bottom in the Figure, creating a net force with a

Predicting blade vortex interaction, airloads and acoustics using the vorticity transport model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Interactions between the blades and vortical structures within the wake of a helicopter rotor are a significant source of impulsive loading and noise, particularly in descending flight.

A compatibility criterion for optimal control and information aggregation in hierarchical network systems

open access: yesAsian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract Large swarms often adopt a hierarchical network structure that incorporates information aggregation. Although this approach offers significant advantages in terms of communication efficiency and computational complexity, it can also lead to degradation due to information constraints.

The use of passive telemetry in rotor fault diagnosis

open access: yes
The sensors most commonly used for monitoring machine health are wired accelerometers because of their high performances and good stability. However, these transducers are usually large in size; require an external power source.

Real‐Time Biomass Estimation in High‐Density Yeast Fermentations Using Soft Sensor Modeling

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Accurate biomass measurements, both offline and online, are essential to improve prediction and control in yeast fermentation. This study develops regression‐based predictive models to correlate offline measurements (Dry Cell Weight and OD600 from a spectrophotometer) with online OD860 probe signals to provide accurate real‐time biomass estimations and

Interactional aerodynamics and acoustics of a propeller-augmented compound coaxial helicopter

open access: yes, 2008
The aerodynamic and acoustic characteristics of a generic hingeless coaxial helicopter with a tail-mounted propulsor and stabiliser have been simulated using Brown's Vorticity Transport Model.

Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

Dynamic‐FLPs Enabled by Orbital Hybridization Tuning: Boosting 100% CO Selectivity for Dilute CO2‐to‐CO Conversion

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
This study, for the first time, constructs photostructured dynamic frustrated Lewis pairs (DFLPs) via a p‐p orbital hybridization regulation strategy, achieving the 100% reduction of low‐concentration CO₂ to CO and breaking the stability‐activity trade‐off.

Supramolecular Host‐Guest Complexation Dynamics by Cost‐Efficient Electronic Structure Methods

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We present a cost‐effective multilevel workflow for the kinetic profiling of host–guest systems, illustrated with cucurbit[6]uril and alkylammonium cations. The method combines rapid docking and reaction path searches at the semi‐empirical level, with refinement of the results using modern density functional theory, accurately reproducing experiment ...
