Abstract Facial expressions exhibit a wide range of emotions. They are regulated by neural mechanisms in the brain that are beyond one’s control. Facial expressions are largely involuntary. The term “micro facial exp...

Abstract The multicomponent thermal fluid (MTF) process is a pivotal technology for enhancing heavy oil recovery. However, its injection often triggers particle migration and deposition within reservoirs, leading to perm...

This paper presents a two-way coupling methodology between the robust Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)-based fluid solver DualSPHysics and the lumped-mass mooring dynamics solver MoorDynPlus. Such integration enable...

The remaining calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) medicaments in the root canal wall can block the penetration of filling medicaments to the dentine tubule and cause the failure in the root canal treatment. One of the ways in cl...

In this work, a coupled formulation for modeling multiple piezoelectric energy harvesters based on vortex-induced vibrations phenomenon at arbitrary locations was presented and experimentally validated. The mathematical ...

The spinning metering pump serves as a critical component that delivers the spinning solution with high precision and directly governs the efficiency of wet spinning industrialization. Nevertheless, manual adjustment of ...

Abstract In this work, the intelligent Levenberg–Marquardt optimization approach is applied to evaluate the activation energy influence on thermo-bioconvection flow of a trihybrid nanofluid including oxytactic microbes...

A novel fiber-tip micro flowmeter based on optofluidic microcavity filled with silver nanoparticles solutions (SNS) is proposed. CW fiber laser was used to heat SNS that can emit heat obviously due to the excellent optic...

Abstract Graphene has superhigh thermal conductivity up to 5000 W/(m·K), extremely thin thickness, superhigh mechanical strength and nano-lamellar structure with low interlayer shear strength, making it possess great po...

Underwater gas pipelines are vital for energy transportation but are often subjected to harsh environments, and any leakage can have significant environmental consequences. Substantial underestimation of gas plume format...

Underwater radiated noise (URN) from submarine propulsors requires reliable flow prediction as a prerequisite for cavitation and acoustic analyses. This study validates a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) workflow to pr...

Introduction. The performance reliability of electric vehicles (EVs) is an important factor in evaluating their suitability for widespread adoption. The reliability and lifespan of an EV depend on several critical factor...

Abstract Ventricular shunt catheters are the standard of care for managing hydrocephalus, yet 40% of implanted catheters fail within two years of implantation, mainly due to proximal catheter obstruction. Prior literatur...

Abstract This study presents a computational investigation into the aerodynamic and thermal performance enhancement of a solar chimney power plant (SCPP) through the integration of wavy geometries along the collector roo...

Abstract Background Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) emerging as a standout in the clinical setting. In this study, we harnessed the power of mNGS to explore the pathogenic spectrum and temporal variations i...

Abstract In current research on deflector jet servo valves, the receiver pressure estimated using traditional two-dimensional simulation and theoretical calculation is always lower than the experimental data; therefore, ...

Abstract This study presents an integrated numerical and experimental investigation of the aerodynamic performance of the Archimedes Spiral Wind Turbine (ASWT) under wind speeds ranging from 5 to 10 m/s. The analyses wer...

We study the intermittency properties of the energy and helicity cascades in two 15363 direct numerical simulations of helical rotating turbulence. Symmetric and antisymmetric velocity increments are examinedas well as p...

The optimization of a possible medium range box wing commercial airliner is presented in three stages. Preliminary research is used to determine various parameters for a potential box wing model, and a baseline model is ...

Abstract This paper analyses the results of the computational analysis between a single planar and a wrap-around fin mounted on a semi-cylindrical body. A free-stream Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was simula...

There have been many attempts to improve the flying performance of a fighter. By modifying the flow that occurs along the fuselage is expected to improve the performance of the aircraft. One of the indicators of combat a...

The aerospike engine was first devised in the early 1960s where it provided new means of reaching orbit in a single stage. The paper aimes to demonstrate the viability of the technology by showcasing the increased nozzle...

No commercial airplane in service today is able to fly half great-circle distances over the globe and achieve the non-stop or the global range to any antipodal location on Earth. A subsonic jetliner has the optimum cruis...

Abstract In order to address health monitoring issues on offshore wind turbines, while taking into account engineering know-how and constraints, we propose a robust model identification procedure based on reliability of ...
