An Integrated Interferometric Fiber Optic Sensor Using a 638 nm Semiconductor Laser for Air-Water Surface Velocity Measurements [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2023
An integrated interferometric fiber optic velocimetry sensor has been proposed and demonstrated at the central wavelength of 638 nm. The sensor is based on the principle of two laser-beams’ interference.

Investigation of the Source of Iceland Basin Freshening: Virtual Particle Tracking with Satellite-Derived Geostrophic Surface Velocities

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
In the 2010s, a large freshening event similar to past Great Salinity Anomalies occurred in the Iceland Basin that has since propagated into the Irminger Sea.

River Flow Measurements Utilizing UAV-Based Surface Velocimetry and Bathymetry Coupled with Sonar

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
Water velocity and discharge are essential parameters for monitoring water resources sustainably. Datasets acquired from Unoccupied Aerial Systems (UAS) allow for river monitoring at high spatial and temporal resolution, and may be the only alternative ...

Effect of Mold Width on the Flow Field in a Slab Continuous-Casting Mold with High-Temperature Velocity Measurement and Numerical Simulation

open access: yesMetals, 2021
In this paper, the effects of the width of the mold on the surface velocity, flow field pattern, turbulent kinetic energy distribution, and surface-level fluctuation in the mold were studied with measurement of the flow velocity near the surface of the ...

Velocity slip on curved surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2014
The Navier boundary condition for velocity slip on flat surfaces, when expressed in tensor form, is readily extended to surfaces of any shape. We test this assertion using molecular dynamics simulations of flow in channels with flat and curved walls and for rotating cylinders and spheres, all for a wide range of solid-liquid interaction strengths.

Velocity Increment on Incidence Angle near the Leading Edge of the Compressor Cascade

open access: yesAerospace, 2023
The geometry of a compressor leading edge has an important effect on the aerodynamic performance at an off-designed incidence angle. The current geometric design methods of the leading edge are usually developed based on the flow characteristics at the ...
