The Control of Large Amplitude Liquid Sloshing with Moving Baffles
Numerical simulations of three-dimensional viscous liquid sloshing in rectangular containers were carried out using an improved volume of fluid technique in conjunction with the Navier-Stokes...

Nonlinear Behavior of Thin Slender Free Surface Non-Newtonian Elliptical Rings
This paper analyzes the nonlinear motion of a slender concentric thin elliptical ring of an incompressible, non-Newtonian fluid. This study includes the physical effects of surface tension,...

Computerized Tomographic Analysis of Fluid Flow in Fractured Tuff
The purpose of this summary is to demonstrate the usefulness of X-ray computerized tomography to observe fluid flow down a fracture and rock matrix inhibition in a sample of Bandelier...

Multiple Modes of Steady-State Slide-Rock Response
The dynamic response of free standing rigid bodies to base excitation can be quite complex, as evidenced by the five motions or modes to be considered in a two-dimensional analysis: rest,...

Water Wave Generated by a Porous Wavemaker
A vertical porous wavemaker sitting in an infinitely long channel of constant depth is studied. The wavemaker performs horizontal oscillatory motion. A simplified analytical approach for...

Dynamic Response of an Infinite Beam Supported by a Fluid
The objective of this study is to investigate the dynamic response of an infinite beam supported by a fluid on one side, and subjected to dynamic loading on the other side. The fluid underneath...

Computation of Wind Pressures on L-Shaped Buildings

Wind Effect on Oblique Motion of Two Bodies in a Uniform Flow
The wind effect on the general translational motion of a circular cylinder through an inviscid and incompressible fluid, conveyed by a uniform flow at infinity, in the vicinity of another...

Two-Dimensional Statistical Micromechanical Models for Microcracked Brittle Solids
Recent development undertaken by the authors in two-dimensional statistical micromechanical models for brittle solids with randomly located interacting microcracks is presented. Overall...

Three-Dimensional Thermal Jump in Stratified Cooling Channel
This study is concerned with basic properties of three-dimensional thermal jumps. Temperature measurements obtained in three-dimensional thermal jumps are presented. The jumps analyzed...

Computation of Flow in Ice-Covered Dune-Bed Channels
A numerical method for solution of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations is developed to study the flow over sand dunes in two-dimensional channels. The method is applied to calculate...

Turbulence, and Energy Loss, at Combining Pipe Junctions
Efforts to measure and describe the loss of energy at 90? sharp-edged junctions are described. The work is focussed on energy losses at discharge and area ratios for which there are no...

Flow Visualization of Lid-Driven Cylindrical Cavity Flow
The lid-driven cylindrical cavity flows in the laminar region are quantitatively visualized by a new flow visualization method called the digital vector velocimetry method. Particle streak...

General Mechanism of Turbulence
By considering the vortex structures of turbulence and using the concept and theory of the pulsative convection and diffusion of instantaneous vorticity in a viscous fluid motion, the...

Three-Dimensional Fracture Process Zone Detection in Concrete
Process zones in concrete have been under intensive investigations during the past several years. Techniques have successfully been used to detect and map the 2-D superficial process zone....

Wave Induced Vortex Near Seashore
The vortex motion behind submerged breakwaters in the nearshore region is studied. The RCPWAVE model (Ebersole et al., 1986) is used to calculate the wave field and thus the radiator stresses...

The Flow in the Front Stagnation Region of a Square Plate with a Small Disturbing Wire in its Upstream
The flow in the front stagnation region of a square plate was investigated experimentally in a water channel. A small wire was placed in the upstream of the square plate to create a small...

The Transverse Vortex in the Wall Regions of the Turbulent Boundary Layers in the Flows with Adverse Pressure Gradient
The vortical structures in the turbulent boundary layers in the flow with adverse pressure gradient were investigated by the hydrogen bubble technique. The vortices were visualized in...

Nonlinear Analysis of Strain-Softening Damage under Monotonic and Cyclic Loading
The paper reviews the modeling of damage by the microplane model and presents extensions required for cyclic loading. The general microplane constitutive model is implemented in a three-dimensional...

Steady-State Nonlinear Heat Transfer in Multilayered Composite Panels
A two-dimensional computational model is developed for the nonlinear heat transfer in multilayered composite panels. The model is based on a first-order thermal lamination theory with...
