A Sequential Quadratic Numerical Optimization Technique to Compute Critical Flutter Speeds

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT A stable sequential quadratic numerical optimization technique is proposed to compute critical flutter speeds without resorting to complex algebra. The solution of the traditional eigenproblem stated in the frequency domain, and whose complex conjugate eigenvalues provide insights on the stability of the dynamic aeroelastic response, is ...

Experimental analysis of the pressure–velocity correlations of external unsteady flow over rocket launchers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Based on simultaneous wall pressure and velocity measurements, the aerodynamic load of a launcher body model is investigated. Two different configurations are considered in order to study the influence of geometrical artifacts on the after body flow and ...

A new drag and lift correlation for spherocylinders from fully resolved Immersed Boundary Method

open access: yesAIChE Journal, Volume 72, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Many industrial processes deal with non‐spherical particles, e.g., mineral mining and biomass conversion. It is crucial to understand the particles' hydrodynamics to control and optimize these processes. To extend the current state‐of‐the‐art from arrays of spherical particles to spherocylindrical particles, we performed extensive particle ...

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

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 829-842, September 2026.
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 ...

Experimental Study on Fine Sediment Infiltration (FSI) Processes in Different Gravel Mixtures

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 7, Page 1573-1585, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Fine sediment infiltration (FSI) can lead to riverbed clogging, thereby degrading important habitats for aquatic biota in the hyporheic interstitial zone of gravel‐bed rivers (e.g., by reducing oxygen availability). This stress on rivers may increase from anthropogenic influences and can be counteracted by artificial gravel augmentation to ...

Strategic Deep‐Water Observations Enhance Probabilistic Parameter Estimation of Lake Hydrodynamic Models

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Calibration of physics‐based hydrodynamic models of lake water temperature often faces challenges including limited observational data and parameter equifinality, that is, many parameterizations yield similar goodness‐of‐fit to observations. This study presents a framework to investigate how the number and location of observation depths used ...
