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

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.

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

Rotor-vortex interaction noise [PDF]

open access: yes
A theoretical and experimental study was conducted to develop a validated first principles analysis for predicting noise generated by helicopter main-rotor shed vortices interacting with the tail rotor.

Simulation of wind turbine wake interaction using the vorticity transport model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The aerodynamic interactions that can occur within a wind farm can result in the constituent turbines generating a lower power output than would be possible if each of the turbines were operated in isolation.

Design of HAWT Rotor for Non‐Uniform Inflow Conditions: A Theoretical and Experimental Approach for Shear Flow

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...

An unsteady helicopter rotor: Fuselage interaction analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
A computational method was developed to treat unsteady aerodynamic interactions between a helicopter rotor, wake, and fuselage and between the main and tail rotors.

Rieske Iron–Sulfur Cluster Proteins From an Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidizer Suggest Unusual Energetics in Their Parent Rieske/Cytochrome b Complexes

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anaerobic ammonium‐oxidizing (anammox) bacteria employ a unique, hydrazine‐based pathway to obtain energy from nitrite and ammonium. These organisms possess distinct Rieske/cytochrome b complexes whose precise role in anammox metabolism remains unclear, but which have been proposed to include the generation of NAD(P)H.

A study in the recovery method of the directional controllability of single-rotor helicopters under tail-rotor damage conditions by using main-rotor brakes and the dead zone/disturbance simultaneous estimator

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
This paper describes considerations of the effectiveness about the recovery control of the yaw rate motion of single-rotor helicopters by using both motors (engines) and main-rotor brakes in autorotation flight under tail-rotor damage conditions.

Ionogel Actuators: A Review

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Ionogels dynamically and functionally couple ionic liquids with polymer networks, enabling multiscale programmable deformation and motion under electrical, magnetic, optical, thermal, humidity, and chemical stimuli. This article systematically elucidates the constituent components, structural design, and multiscale actuation mechanisms of ionogel ...

ASPECTS REGARDING INTERLAMINAR STRESS DISTRIBUTION ON THE COMPOSITE LAMINATED SKIN OF A TAIL ROTOR BLADE EXPOSED TO AERODYNAMIC FORCES [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals: Series on engineering sciences (Academy of Romanian Scientists), 2020
In realizing a high-performance composite material, it is important to take into consideration all the factors that influence the structural response of the component when exposed to service conditions.
