The proposed work aims to design and develop a novel direct drive parallel stream counter-rotating Darrieus turbine system capable of producing power at low velocities (l[...]

The use of nonconventional beam classes in turbulence applications is investigated. Through the study on pseudo-Bessel correlated beam propagation in the atmosphere, it i[...]

The phenomenon of mass ejection into vacuum from a shocked metallic free surfaces can have a deleterious effect on the implosion phase of the Inertial Confinement Fusion [...]

In this work, a two-dimensional finite element model of orthogonal machining ofAISI 1045 steel is developed using the commercial non-linear finite element packageABAQUS. [...]

Shock-driven multi-material flows occur in several applications including shock wave lithotripsy, underwater explosions, droplet combustion, propeller cavitation and ejec[...]

This thesis focuses upon using a high-order finite-difference method on a structured overset grid to study flow features around a generic simplified car model adjusting m[...]

Mode transition in Rotating Detonation Engines (RDEs) refers to an abrupt change in the number of detonation waves due to a change in inlet conditions such as the injecte[...]

Aerodynamics has long been perceived as the single most important aspect amongst all factors that contribute to the on-track performance of a racecar. As such, in all for[...]

Ocean Current Turbines (OCTs), which function similarly to wind and tidal turbines, represent a promising technology for harnessing the energy from oceanic currents such [...]
