With growing innovations on the Internet of Things capabilities, automated monitoring and
remote sensing applications have become important in the modern world. However, with …

This study numerically investigates the behavior of vortices and flow structure in a dynamic
stall phenomenon, especially in post-stall where the flow is highly nonlinear. Computational …

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the H-Darrieus wind turbine aerodynamic
performance, aerodynamic blade loads, and velocity profiles downstream behind the rotor …

The purpose of this work is to study the effects of blade thickness on the performances of an
axial-flow fan. Two fans that differ only in the thickness of their blades were studied. The first …

In this work, a bidirectional impulse turbine used in a wave energy device is simulated using
a CFD technique and a shape optimization performed with multiple surrogates-assisted …

A prominent feature of gliding flight in snakes of the genus Chrysopelea is the unique cross-
sectional shape of the body, which acts as the lifting surface in the absence of wings. When …

The hunting strategies of pelagic thresher sharks (Alopias pelagicus) were investigated at
Pescador Island in the Philippines. It has long been suspected that thresher sharks hunt with …

Small horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) are increasingly used as source of energy
production. Based on this observation, the blade element momentum theory (BEMT) is …

The transition in the boundary-layer flow affects the hydrodynamic performances of hydraulic
machineries, as the key components in the ship propulsion system. The shear stress transfer …

This paper presents an experimental investigation of tip vortex formation noise produced by
wall-mounted finite airfoils. Acoustic measurements were taken in the open jet anechoic …
