Kim, Sangbum; Hu, Chia-Ren; Andrews, Malcolm J. (American Physical Society, 2006)Computer modeling is reported about the creation and pinning of a magnetic vortex-antivortex (V-AV) pair in a superconducting thin film, due to the magnetic field of a vertical magnetic dipole above the film, and two antidot ...

Peart, Freeman Michael (2009-05-15)There are two coupled objectives for this study of buoyancy-driven turbulence. The first objective is to determine if the development of a Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) mixing layer can be manipulated experimentally by altering the ...

Xu, Jinming (Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)The labyrinth seal is widely used in turbomachinery to minimize or control leakage between areas of different pressure. The present investigation numerically explored the effect of damage and wear of the labyrinth seal on ...

Andrews, Malcolm J.; Ross Jr., Joseph H.; Slattery, John C.; Yavuz, Mustafa; Beskok, Ali; Hartwig Jr., Karl T. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 2004-09-07)A method includes providing a superconducting material having pinning sites that can pin magnetic vortices within the superconducting material. The method also includes pinning one or more magnetic vortices at one or more ...

Kim, Sangbum (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)In part I, a numerical study of the mixed states in a mesoscopic type-II superconducting cylinder is described. Steady-state configurations and transient behavior of the magnetic vortices for various values of the applied ...
-
Ramaprabhu, Praveen Kumar (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The self-similar evolution of a turbulent Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) mix is investigated through experiments and numerical simulations. The experiments consisted of velocity and density measurements using thermocouples and ...
-
Fan, Bijian (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)In this study, particle lift force and its influence on particle behavior are considered in suspension flows. Saffman force, a particle lift force derived in parallel laminar shear flow, is extended to a general particle ...
