Vorticity Waves in Shear Flows
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to bring about the vorticity-creation process at the boundary surfaces on one hand and to understand the interaction of concentrated vorticity structures on the shear flow on the other hand. The paper address the simulation of flow visualization of the vortical structures accounting for both the circulation and the degree of concentration of vorticity via the exact nonlinear solution of Stuart for an inviscid unsteady mixing layer. At a fixed volume of circulation an increased concentration of vorticity is provoked by decreasing the area containing most of the vorticity, and then it spreads over an increased area of the flow. A concentration parameter characterizing vorticity is defined and flow patterns, representing waves travelling in the flow direction are found for different combinations of vorticity concentration and circulation.

Computing Method of Forces on Rivet
This article aims to provide a quick methodology of forces calculation on rivet in single shear using the finite element method (FEM) – NASTRAN/PATRAN. These forces can be used for the calculus of bearing, inter rivet bu...
Analysis of New Aerodynamic Design of the Nose Cone Section Using CFD and SPH
A new nose cones concept that promises a gain in performance over existing conventional nose cones is discussed in this paper. It is shown that significant performance gains result from the adaptation of the exhaust flow...

Tribological performance of the blend PBT and short aramid fibers
Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and its aramid fiber composite (10 wt.%) were investigated in order to measure their wear and frictional properties under variations of applied load (5 N, 10 N, 15N) and velocity (0.25 m/...
