Channel flow over large cube roughness: a direct numerical simulation study [PDF]
Computations of channel flow with rough walls comprising staggered arrays of cubes having various plan area densities are presented and discussed. The cube height h is12.5% of the channel half-depth and Reynolds numbers (u? h/?) are typically around 700 –

This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...

Development of Surface Roughness in AA6111 Aluminum Alloy [PDF]
The effect of strain hardening rate and material strength on the development of surface roughness in AA6111 was investigated. No measurable change in the rate of roughening, or in the surface morphology was observed due to altering the strain ...

Rapidly Solidified High‐Strength Invar 36 Prepared by Planar‐Flow Melt Spinning
The Invar 36 alloy was rapidly solidified using the planar‐flow melt‐spinning technique. Ribbon samples with thicknesses ranging from 20 to 160 mm were produced. As the grain size of the ribbon decreased to sub‐micron levels, the hardness increased by more than 2 times.

The influence of surface roughness on runoff generation and soil erosion in semi-arid Environments [PDF]
Geomorphology is essentially the study of rough surfaces; perfectly smooth, natural surfaces are extremely rare on Earth. There is no single property that can defined as 'surface roughness'; it can be characterised in a variety of ways.

Morphology, Transport, and Dynamics of Protein Adsorption in Open‐Cell Metal Foam
Stainless steel (SS) open‐cell foams are shown to adsorb more protein per unit area than previously reported 316L SS and chromium oxide surfaces under static and flow conditions. An integrated approach combining 3D pore imaging, flow simulation, and protein adsorption experiments characterizes the foam’s performance.

Investigation into noise emitted by bluff bodies with large roughness
A set of wind tunnel experiments were performed to study the effect of large surface roughness on circular cylinder noise, with the goal of improving landing gear noise predictions. Roughness increases vortex shedding noise levels, and shifts the peak to
