Turbuelence Modeling and Valication to Predict Velocity Profiles in Close-Coupled Five-Gore Elbows
(Mechanical Engineering, 2021 , Dissertation)
This research work aims to validate advanced turbulence modeling techniques used to predict complex flows in close-coupled five-gore elbows and similar complex geometries using data from 2016 ASHRAE RP-1682 (Study to ...
IGNITION DELAY TIME INVESTIGATION OF GTL FUEL BLENDS
(Mechanical Engineering, 06-2 , Dissertation)
Ignition delay is a vital combustion characteristic of any fuel that directly affects the development of internal combustion engines (ICEs) and exhaust emissions, especially in diesel engines. Considering the global interest ...
EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS AND TRANSIENT 3D SIMULATIONS OF TURBULENT PREMIXED FLAMES OF GAS-TO-LIQUIDS (GTL) FUEL IN A FAN-STIRRED COMBUSTION BOMB
(Mechanical Engineering, 2022 , Dissertation)
The rapid fluctuation in oil prices and the increased demand for alternative fuels to replace conventional fuels are challenging contemporary issues. One such alternative fuel that has gained significant interest recently ...
Safe and Adaptive Social Robots for Children with Autism
(Mechanical Engineering, 2020 , Dissertation)
Social robots are being considered to be a part of the therapy for children with autism due to the reported efficacy such technology in improving the outcomes. How
ever, children diagnosed with autism exhibit challenging ...
Development of Internally Pressurized Composite/Metallic/Composite Hybrid Pipes
(Mechanical Engineering, 2021 , Dissertation)
The challenge to the pipeline industry is to meet the increased worldwide
demand while reducing the cost. Currently, metallic and composite pipelines are the
most cost-effective way of transporting water, oil, and gas. ...
