Wind-tunnel Experiments on Train Ferries

open access: yesJournal of Zosen Kiokai, 1952
On Aomori-Hakodate sea line wind is very strong in winter and train ferries often suffer from unfavourable effect of wind on their manoeuvering. To investigate the wind effect on ferries contributing to putting out plans for the reconstruction or for the new design of them, wind-tunnel experiments were carried out on some typical types of them ...

Mechanochemistry‐Assisted Solvent‐Free Supramolecular Engineering for Atomic‐Layered Carbon Nitride Nanosheets with Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A solvent‐free mechanochemistry‐enabled supramolecular engineering strategy is developed to directly synthesize covalent‐interconnected two‐dimensional atomic‐layered carbon nitride nanosheets photocatalyst, bypassing conventional top‐down exfoliation requirements.

INFLUENCE OF WIND STRUCTURE AND ASPECT RATIO OF CIRCULAR CYLINDERS ON MEAN WIND PRESSURE COEFFICIENT

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2012
The paper presents analyses of the mean wind pressure coefficient distribution on the surfaces of circular cylinders. The experiment was performed in a boundary layer wind tunnel in the Wind Engineering Laboratory in Cracow, Poland.

TORNADO concept and realisation of a rotor for small VAWTs [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin, 2013
The concept of a three-tier configuration for a vertical axis rotor was successfully developed into a experimental model. The rotor assembly is divided into three tiers with three straight blades in each tier.

Wind loads on ground-based telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
One of the factors that can influence the performance of large optical telescopes is the vibration of the telescope structure due to unsteady wind inside the telescope enclosure.

GeAl2‐2xFe2xO3(OH)4 Nanotubes: New Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fe‐doped imogolite nanotubes are synthesized via a one‐step hydrothermal method with varying Fe substitution ratios x. Structural and spectroscopic analyses confirm homogeneous Fe incorporation while preserving tubular shape. Optimal doping at x = 0.05 enhances optical absorption, narrows band gap, reduces charge transfer resistance, and significantly ...

Process studies of odour emissions from effluent ponds using machine-based odour measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Replicable experimental studies using a novel experimental facility and a machine-based odour quantification technique were conducted to demonstrate the relationship between odour emission rates and pond loading rates. The odour quantification technique

Comparison of Different Driving Modes for the Wind Turbine Wake in Wind Tunnels

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The wake of upstream wind turbine is known to affect the operation of downstream turbines and the overall efficiency of the wind farm. Wind tunnel experiments provide relevant information for understanding and modeling the wake and its dependency on the ...

The role of visual and mechanosensory cues in structuring forward flight in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It has long been known that many flying insects use visual cues to orient with respect to the wind and to control their groundspeed in the face of varying wind conditions.
