Migration and Dispersion Evolution of Exhaled Aerosol in a Ward Under Different Ventilation Modes

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wards with special functions and closure will have a higher risk of viral transmission as aerosols are an important mode of transmission for the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus. In this study, an experimental platform was built to establish the relevant parameters of the aerosol model and the aerosol propagation model according to the experimental results ...

Experimental methods for wind tunnel studies of seed dispersal by wind

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The complexity and variability of natural environments make quantitative studies of seed wind dispersal challenging. Wind tunnel experiments offer a controlled alternative to investigate the mechanisms of seed wind dispersal. This review focuses on wind tunnels and the associated technologies used for studying seed wind dispersal, including ...

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

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

Energy 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 ...

Unsteady Lifting Surface Theory Based on Double Linearization Concept for Supersonic Through-Flow Fan.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series B, 1994
A full three-dimensional lifting surface theory based on the double linearization concept is developed for a rotating annular cascade model operating at axial supersonic velocity. It is assumed that each blade vibrates with infinitesimal displacement amplitude under small mean loading.

Application of High‐Order Direct Flux Reconstruction and Stiffness‐Resilient Time Integration to Simulations of Idealized Atmospheric Flows

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
The proposed work implements a direct flux reconstruction method for spatial discretization and a stiffness‐resilient exponential time integration method for temporal discretization on the cube‐sphere grid. A space‐time tensor formalism is employed to provide a general representation in any curvilinear coordinate system. This combination enables highly

Innovative Fluid Mechanics Education Through Augmented Reality and Interactive Learning

PAMM, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Traditional pedagogical setups in laboratories are often outdated and do not provide the necessary support for effective learning. Teaching fluid mechanics poses additional significant challenges, particularly due to the need to visualize invisible properties, like velocity vector fields (velocity) or scalar pressure fields in time‐dependent ...

Shrouded Wind and Water Turbine Analytical Model Extensions for Tip Gaps, Center Bodies, and Flow Blockage

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper provides improvements to a previously presented simple, accurate, lower order analytical model for predicting the performance of horizontal‐axis shrouded turbines for a wide range of shroud airfoil shapes varying in length, camber, and thickness. The new, extended model incorporates explicit quantitative predictions of those effects

Wind Forcing and Warm Water Upwelling in a Recurring Beaufort Shelf Polynya

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Beaufort Shelf has historically been reported to exhibit limited polynya activity in winter. Yet, recent satellite observations show episodic recurrence of a large polynya west of Mackenzie Canyon, a site of significant shelf‐basin exchange.
