Evolution Characteristics of Separated Vortices and Near-Wall Flow in a Centrifugal Impeller in an Off-Designed Condition

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Flow separation is undesirable and lowers the efficiency of centrifugal impellers. In this study, the evolution characteristics of separated vortices in a centrifugal impeller are studied under the off-designed flow rate condition.

Contact and frictional properties of stratum corneum of human skin

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2015
Most skin tribology studies gave attention on the examination of frictional properties of normal and healthy skin surfaces. This study aims to investigate the frictional and mechanical properties of skin under different load and friction conditions after

Variables influencing the frictional behaviour of in vivo human skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the past decades, skin friction research has focused on determining which variables are important to affect the frictional behaviour of in vivo human skin. Until now, there is still limited knowledge on these variables.

Analysis of Negative Skin Friction on a Single Pile Based on the Effective Stress Method and the Finite Element Method

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Negative skin friction (NSF) of piles in recent filling or soft area is an important effect factor of pile bearing capacity. Since field experiments on NSF are time consuming and it is difficult to large surcharge loads in experimental research, a ...

Frictional Coefficient under Banana Skin

open access: yesTribology Online, 2012
We measured the frictional coefficient under banana skin on floor material. Force transducer with six degrees of freedom was set under a flat panel of linoleum. Both frictional force and vertical force were simultaneously measured during a shoe sole was pushed and rubbed by a foot motion on the panel with banana skin.

Tribology of Skin: Review and Analysis of Experimental Results for the Friction Coefficient of Human Skin [PDF]

open access: yesTribology Letters, 2011
In this review, we discuss the current knowledge on the tribology of human skin and present an analysis of the available experimental results for skin-friction coefficients. Starting with an overview on the factors influencing the friction behaviour of skin, we discuss the up-to-date existing experimental data and compare the results for different ...

Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flow Past a Cylinder Placed Downstream of a Step

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Proceedings, 2022
This study investigates the effect on the flow structure in a backward-facing step (BFSF) due to a cylinder placed downstream of the step. Numerical simulations were carried out using OpenFOAM with several turbulence models (standard k-ɛ, RNG k-ɛ ...
