Assessing the safety of amphibious aircraft hinges significantly on two key factors: wave-added resistance and motion stability during takeoff and landing on water surfaces. To tackle this, we employed the Reynolds-averaged Navier?Stokes (RANS) equations...

A streamlined genetic algorithm was developed and implemented on a GPU to evaluate low-thrust trajectories of spacecraft propelled by an ion thruster. It was then applied to examine the utility of a specific thruster for an asteroid impact mission. This ...

A four stage helicoaxial pump was tested under varying operating conditions. A range of inlet pressures, rotational speeds (3000, 3600 rpm), and gas void fractures (GVFs) were considered for two fluid viscosities. The head developed and power input to ru...

Railway sidings are operated at speeds much lower than those used on national railway lines; a typical speed is 6 km/h. In establishing reference values for maintenance of railway infrastructure in terms of the geometry for such operating conditions, it ...

In designing a horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) blade, system integration between the blade design and the performance test of the generator is important. This study shows the aerodynamic design of a HAWT blade operating with an axial-flux permanent m...
