Characterisation of multiphase fluid-structure interaction using non-intrusive optical techniques
(2011 , Article)
The purpose of this study is to determine experimentally the effectiveness of passive drag reduction techniques (which involve adjusting surface geometry) within a chaotic multiphase flow system. To quantify the intrusion ...
Effect of water absorption on the mechanical properties of long date palm leaf fiber reinforced epoxy composites
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2015 , Article)
This paper examines the effect of the first 24 hours water absorption on the mechanical properties and morphology of the long date palm leave fiber (DPLF) and unidirectional reinforced epoxy composites. The mechanical ...
The effects of gas tungsten arch welding on the corrosion and mechanical properties of AA 6061 T6
(2013 , Article)
Corrosion of welded and un-welded Aluminum Alloy 6061 T6 was investigated by immersing specimens in 3.5% (wt) NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic and open circuit potential measurements were conducted. The mechanical properties ...
