Fractal-based modeling of rail roughness
(2024-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper uses fractal modeling techniques to effectively depict the roughness characteristics of the rails examined in this study by means of both the structure function and the Weierstrass–Mandelbrot function to capture ... -
Wind turbine enhancement via active flow control implementation
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2024-12-07)
Article
Open AccessThe present research enhances the efficiency of an airfoil section from the DTU-10MW Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) via Active Flow Control (AFC) implementation and when using synthetic jets (SJ). The flow around two ... -
Effects of turbulence boundary conditions on Spalart-Allmaras RANS simulations for active flow control applications
(2024-11-14)
Article
Open AccessWe assess the suitability of Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) simulation using the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model as a closure in analysing the performance of fluidic Active Flow Control (AFC) applications. ... -
Exploring whole-body vibration transmission through the human body in different postures on a large vibration platform
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2024-10-01)
Article
Open AccessThe positive effects of whole-body vibration exercise in rehabilitation, sport, fitness and preventive medicine have led to a proliferation of vibrating platforms. However, discrepancies have been claimed between the ... -
Novel fluidic oscillator evaluation considering dimensional modifications
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2024-10-29)
Article
Open AccessAlthough flow mixing and cooling can be greatly enhanced when considering the use of fluidic oscillators (FOs), they are more commonly employed in active flow control (AFC) applications where the injected pulsating flow ... -
Non-uniform variation characteristics of temperature field and corresponding thermal effect of longitudinal continuous slab ballastless track structure
(Elsevier, 2024-09-01)
Article
Open AccessThe longitudinal continuous slab ballastless track structure (LCSBTS) easily suffers from interface and joint damage when subjected to extremely high-temperature loads, significantly affecting the running smoothness and ... -
A modified lattice Boltzmann approach based on radial basis function approximation for the non-uniform rectangular mesh
(2024-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe have presented a novel lattice Boltzmann approach for the non-uniform rectangular mesh based on the radial basis function approximation (RBF-LBM). The non-uniform rectangular mesh is a good option for local grid refinement, ... -
