This paper presents the development and assessment of a numerical method for simulated site calibration. The wind flow over complex terrain is predicted with a small length scale resolution. The flow field is resolved with the Reynolds averaged NavierStokes equations, complemented by the k-epsilon t … [J. Sol. Energy Eng. 130, 031020 (2008)] published Fri Jul 18, 2008.

To reduce the level of uncertainty associated with current rotor aerodynamics codes, improved understanding of rotor aerodynamics is required. Wind tunnel measurements on model rotors contribute to advancing our knowledge on rotor aerodynamics. The combined recording of blade loads and rotor wake is … [J. Sol.

Delamination at ply drops in composites with thickness tapering has been a concern in applications of carbon fibers. This study explored the resistance to delamination under fatigue loading of carbon and glass fiber prepreg laminates with the same resin system, containing various ply drop geometries … [J. Sol. Energy Eng. 130, 031001 (2008)] published Fri Jun 13, 2008.

The names are common, but do you know what they really describe?

No leak path design simplifies maintenance, resists contamination.

Probes available in a wide variety of common sensor configurations.

Third-body effects appear to be responsible for an appreciable portion of the wear rate variability within cohorts of patients with metal-on-polyethylene joint replacements. The parameters dominating the rate of polyethylene debris liberation by counterface scratches are not fully understood, but on … [J. Biomech. Eng. 130, 051006 (2008)] published Mon Jul 14, 2008.
