Granular flow poses interesting questions in terms of both theoretical and applied mechanics. The increased utilization of vibrational finishing processes in the manufact[...]

Emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) are one of the main problems of using fossil energy sources such as coal and natural gas. Thus, decarbonization of the energy sector,[...]

To stay competitive within the gas turbine community, turbine aero designers strive to maximize the total work output of each turbine stage through a combination of airfo[...]

This research provides preliminary results of electrospraying in elevated surrounding pressures of 40, 50 and 60 psi. Investigations were correspondingly detailed regardi[...]

This dissertation introduces new models for the locomotion and control of mechanical and hydrodynamic systems that exhibit symmetry, constraints, and control. I introduc[...]

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 [...]

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

The aerodynamic properties of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become a central area of research for both civilian and military applications. Extensive data has been [...]
