(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)The electric power systems in U.S. Navy ships supply energy to sophisticated systems for weapons, communications, navigation and operation. The reliability and survivability of a Shipboard Power System (SPS) are critical ...
-
(2022-08-23)Spatial BiGlobal (SBG) theory was used to study boundary-layer transition on a hypersonic finned cone. A new solver, BLAST, has been developed to apply the equations in a nonorthogonal manner, which extends its applicability ...
-
(2020-04-14)The proposed mechanism of fibril formation of transthyretin (TTR) involves self-assembly of partially unfolded monomers. However, the mechanism(s) of disassembly to monomer and potential intermediates involved in this ...
-
(2021-08-02)There are significant challenges involved in the design of hypersonic vehicles/projectiles, one of them being the fluid dynamics on the surface. The fluid dynamics can affect the thermal load, structural load and handling ...
-
(2009-05-15)Bi-layered materials are a reduced weight derivative of the sandwich structure and are comprised of one thin skin face reinforced by a thick layer of low density material. Bi-layered materials are characterized by high ...
-
(1990)The Asp15-->Ala mutant of ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) was constructed by site-directed mutagenesis, cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. This mutant was synthesized to determine whether or not the aspartic acid at ...
-
(2010-07-14)Phytochemical composition, antioxidant activity, pigment stability, bioactive properties, and in-vitro absorption of polyphenolics in acai fruit (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) were investigated. Detailed characterization of ...
-
(2018-05-03)Laminar-to-turbulent transition is a process that is critical in determining the system drag and surface heating of a flight vehicle, and the ability to predict, and possibly control, this process has become an essential ...
-
(2013-01-15)Skin friction drag reduction is one of the most promising paths in the investigation of the reduction of aircraft fuel burn. 40 – 50% of overall drag comes from the surfaces of the wings and stabilizers. Natural laminar ...
-
(2019-01-02)ABSTRACT Power delivery presents key design challenges in today’s systems ranging from high performance micro-processors to mobile systems-on-a-chips (SoCs). A robust power delivery system is essential to ensure reliable ...
-
(2015-05-14)Recent years have witnessed the linear and nonlinear parabolized stability equations (PSE) become a quintessential component toward understanding boundary-layer laminarto-turbulent transition. Because of the abundant ...
-
(2012-07-11)Here we focus on the stability characteristics of a rectangular liquid-filled vessel. The position vector of the center of gravity of the liquid volume is derived and used to express the equilibrium angles of the vessel. ...
-
(2012-10-19)The stability of drops forced by both wind and gravity is a fluid mechanics problem relevant to heat exchangers, fuel cells, and aircraft icing. To investigate this phenomenon, drops from 15 micro-liters to 400 micro-liters ...
-
(2009-05-15)Tea is second only to water as the most consumed beverage in the world due to its health-promoting benefits and characteristic flavor. Even though many botanical teas such as yaupon holly (Ilex vomitoria) and mamaki (Pipturus ...
-
(2016-12-02)Electric Submersible Pumps (ESPs) are a subgroup of pumps designed to have small diameters to accommodate tight working environments. The long length of an ESP (5-100 stages) requires a large amount of annular seals. Each ...
-
(2007-07-14)The purpose of this project was to gain a better understanding of the means used to keep large proteins from becoming too stable. As globular proteins become larger, they bury a larger fraction of their side chains and ...
-
Influence of Genetic Background on Anthocyanin and Co-Pigment Profile and Stability of Colored Corn (2014-08-05)Growing consumer demand for healthy and natural snacks provides an opportunity for utilization of pigmented corn in the tortilla chip market. This study determined the effect of phenotype^(1) on anthocyanin and co-pigment ...
-
(2012-10-19)The dependence on oil and the fact that petroleum conventional reservoirs are becoming depleted direct attentions toward unconventional-and harder to access-reservoirs. Among those, heavy and extremely heavy oil reservoirs ...
-
(2009-06-02)Tool chatter in longitudinal turning is addressed with a new perspective using a complex machining model describing the coupled tool-workpiece dynamics subject to nonlinear regenerative cutting forces, instantaneous ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Motivated by the reservoir engineering concept of the productivity index of a producing oil well in an isolated reservoir, we analyze a time dependent functional, diffusive capacity, on the solutions to initial boundary ...
